it's all okay
I really am okay, really.
Monday I had a couple of hours of crying and feeling sad. Jared was kind enough to let me sit in my room and cry by myself while he took care of Jace even though it was hard for him too. I mean we really did want this to all work out but if there is one thing I've learned in my life it is that it is His plan not my plan. Crying and feeling sorry for myself is not going to fix or change or make anything better.
And this is when I am so grateful for my testimony and knowledge of the gospel, the atonement and the love that my Heavenly Father and Savior have for me. A simple prayer, recognizing all that I have been blessed with and asking for the power of the atonement to take away my pain makes it all okay. What a beautiful tender mercy.
Thank you for your love and comments and emails that you sent our way. Now on to blogging about other things that fill my life with joy!

Alma and I are thinking of you and keeping your family in our prayers. Seriously, please let me know if there's anything I can do. And don't forget to link to our blog under your family and friends on the side. Love you!
See that's the faith I was talking about. You never cease to amaze me! I love you- amber
Wow, you are amazing. I am impressed at your attitude about this whole thing. It had to be hard. But the comforting thing is that the Lord is in charge and He loves you. Everything will work out in the end. Once again, I am so sorry.
We love you guys. You are in our prayers.
I found your blog through Tomoko and I wish I had a better chance to get to know you in the ward.
I know exactly what you're going through, and good for you for trying to stay positive. It's not easy. Thanks for sharing.
I've been thinking of you and your family and wondering how everything turned out. So sorry to hear the news - I've been through this before too and I know how emotionally draining it is. One thing I learned was not to give up and to trust in the Lord. I never imagined the journey our struggle with infertility would take us on but we are have been blessed through adoption with the sweetest little boy in the world and will always be grateful for that. Keep your chin up and let me know if you need anything:))
Jeannie you are amazingly strong and your faith remarkable! We are so sorry for your losss! We love you and you are in our prayers! I sure want to get out to Utah to see my adorable grandson and his parents! Happy Thanksgiving!
