My husband and I have been married for a little over a year and have been contemplating getting pregnant and starting a family. We decided that this is something that we would like to do and have been trying for about eight months or so. Nothing.
I have a younger sister who is 23 and this last weekend I got the surprise of my life when she annouced to my mother and I that she was pregnant. Not married, not even engaged, and she is pregnant. Now, I know that this happens all the time, but it really surprised me. If you knew my sister, it would surprise you to. She was always the goody two shoes in the family and had set such high goals for herself.
So, anyway, I sit here and wonder, why her???? I am the one who wants it and is ready for it, but it isn't happening. It happens to her instead, someone who isn't ready for it and wasn't planning on it. Don't get me wrong, I will love that baby no matter what, but it is a little hard to understand. Or at least it was. Until Sunday of that same weekend. I have a couple of very close friends who love me very much and they went out of their way to make me feel better, and I am so grateful.
I wasn't happy and I was depressed, and these friends pulled me aside and prayed 'over' me and it made me feel so much better. They explained to me that it is all up to Him and that he has it timed a certain way, and it will hapen. I just keep on praying that it happens soon! Now with my sister pregnant, I think that it would be a blast to go through it together and raise our children to be good friends, like I was with my cousin growing up.
Keep on praying for us!
