Baby Curtis-Due Christmas Day!

Adam and I have some exciting news to share: Baby Curtis is due on December 25, 2016! We could not be more grateful and humbled to celebrate this sweet gift from the Lord. 
Our child is truly our little Christmas miracle. 

"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the Heavenly lights who does not change like shifting shadows." James 1:17

Although we are thrilled to be pregnant, we would not be giving the Lord credit for this baby if we didn't share our whole story. We feel that by just sharing the good part of our story, then no one will truly be able to see how the Lord has worked in our lives. You see, our story is not an easy one. Our story might end with the upmost joy but it has been an incredibly, painful journey. This is our story of our two miscarriages, our months of infertility, and our current and healthy pregnancy. This post is not a post to make you feel sorry for us but a post to share God's faithfulness in our story and how we have been redeemed. This is our testimony of just how good and loving and beautiful our Heavenly Father truly is.

Our prayer is that by sharing our intimate struggles that more people will come to know Jesus and God will get the glory for this beautiful testimony He has written about our lives. Our other prayer is that women would know that, "You are not alone!" There are so many times during our story where we felt ashamed and that we needed to hide what was going on in our lives. This is a lie from Satan. He wants us to keep our struggles a secret BUT when we shed light on these dark areas, God brings forth redemption and healing and peace.
"The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." John 1:5 
Our last prayer is that the Lord would continue to use us in this lifetime to bring Him glory. Whether we are rejoicing or we are mourning, we will always Praise His Holy Name
