Waiting

We are all waiting for something. Very rarely are we completely content with things. There's always something we desire, and we think "if only I had ____..."

When we're teenagers it's college.
When we're graduating college it's a job.
When we're single its marriage.
And when we're married it's children.

I have that desire - the one for children. I often think about how much I want a family.

A few days ago I realized I have a family. It's a family of two.

David and I were talking about how we can't wait for God to bless us (with children).

I realized we are blessed. We don't have children, but God has not forgotten us. We've been blessed in more ways that we could have ever dared to desire.

I'm done waiting. I'm ready to live.
