Today is one of those days where I really wonder if we're ready for this. Do we really know what we're getting into? I hear over and over how being a parent requires you to be selfless. I know it's going to be challenging at times, but it's a challenge that I want for my life. At least most of the time. And then I have days like today, and I want to be left alone and someone to take care of me instead of constantly being the one to take care of everything else.
It would be easy to give up and just avoid the whole "can't have kids" thing because it's easier, but I don't believe that that's what God has for us. Troy and I originally talked about just accepting that we couldn't have biological kids and going on with our lives. However, I truly believe that adoption is in His plan for us. And so on days like today I have to just go back to the truth that's been my rock for the past year - I have to be active and declare my hope in something more than what I'm feeling at this moment.
