I went through the exact same thing with our boys. I wanted to have a natural birth so, so, SO badly with at least one and both ended in c-sections. I was so upset and frustrated. It was difficult to swallow. But, at the end of the day I just had to remind myself that so many women are unable to even carry their own baby or have healthy children of their own, etc. I was blessed in so many other ways that having two c-sections wasn't as bad as I had built it up in my head. But, I can completely relate to all of the feelings you expressed. Your children are beautiful. All 3 of them. Thrilled for your sweet family. :)Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02947197345402214313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1651922154509986948.post-70872775897508826482012-12-31T08:38:18.072-08:002012-12-31T08:38:18.072-08:00Jess, thank you so much for sharing your heart and...Jess, thank you so much for sharing your heart and your struggles. It was such an encouragement to me this morning and brought tears to my eyes. The Lord loves you so much and I am so thankful that He blessed you with precious, perfect Clarissa. He is good, even when it is hard to understand why things don't happen the way we want them to. He has been teaching me a lot about choosing joy, even when things aren't the way I want them. I can't wait to meet your precious baby girl and I am praying for you as you continue to seek the Lord and trust His plan! :) Love you sweet friend!
