Happy Through Trials: Lessons She Learned From Infertility2

Right now I feel like I need to stop treatments and focus on healing my body. I am going to go grain free and try to get my Endometreosis under control. If Heavenly Father wants me to have more children, He will lead and guide me to know when and how to do it. If it is Heavenly Father's plan for me to only have one child in this life...well then I am happy with that as well.
I have come to a point where I am done trying to please everyone around me, I want to please myself and my Heavenly Father. I have always had a hard time saying how I really feel, especially if it is not what people want to hear. Heavenly Father ultimately has given me the peace to feel like I can be done trying and enjoy the miracle I already have. When I follow the spirit, all of those feelings of not being good enough are gone. I know Heavenly Father knows me. He knows Mitch. And He knows Kaylee. He knows what is best for all of us and He knows what we need.

So I choose to follow Him.

I have been so blessed to have supportive and loving people in my life. People who have been so kind and understanding for my decisions. God is good. I have so much more joy in my life when I follow His plan for me. I know He is in the details of our lives. For this I am truly grateful.

On April 11, 2016 I posted this article on my blog. The NEXT day I got a text asking if I wanted to adopt! (We had not considered adoption) The next ten days were some of the craziest and most emotional days of my life. My husband and I spent a lot of time in the temple and on our knees. We had prayers from family and friends helping us along too.

I truly feel that staying close to God is key to navigating this life. I know I am much happier and have so much more to give when I follow God's ways.Through God's grace and endless love, we are now the parents to two cute girls!

We have custody of our sweet baby Grace and are waiting to finalize her adoption soon. I know Heavenly Father knows me and my struggles. He has always been leading and guiding me. It is amazing for me to look back and see how beautifully my Heavenly Father planned the miracles in my life. I am also very aware that my trials are not over... there will continue to be hard times, that is just life and how we grow. I am so thankful for my trials...they are perfect for me. It's through my trials that I've become and can become who my Heavenly Father wants me to be. I wouldn't be who I am today with out my struggles.
