baby #5

My heart is pounding as I prepare to hit “post”.

I’ve always been good at sharing our joy.

The hard stuff, not so much.

This post comes with a little of both.

After two early miscarriages, we are looking forward to welcoming our precious Baby #5 in October. I haven’t shared before now because, to be completely honest, I have spent a lot of this pregnancy feeling absolutely terrified something will go wrong.

But fear is paralyzing, and I’m tired of hiding behind it, sacrificing the peace and joy it steals from my heart.

This little life deserves to be celebrated. Our hearts are overflowing with gratitude and love.

Here’s to hope and happiness ahead. We can’t wait to meet you in about five months, Baby.
