I know you oh so well. I know all to well the inward feelings you are having, you know I experienced some of those same thoughts many years ago as your dad and I tried so desperately to get you into our life. How ironic it is today to watch my oldest to experience some of the same thoughts that I had in my early years of marriage. Why we are given such burdens to bear is only up to a higher God. Someday we will be understand the experiences we have on this earth. Your pain is my pain! Your tears are my tears! Your heartbreak is my heartbreak! Your joy is my joy, and I know one day however this burden is lifted from you, your life will be filled with such overwhelming joy. I hope you will share those moments as well. What a gift you have given me and others by sharing these experiences with us. The biggest hurdle is finding a way to cope with our adversities. You not only help yourself but others that are feeling the same anguish as you and your sweetheart. There is no doubt in my heart and mind that God will bless you and your love with arms to hold and cheeks to kiss. Thank you dear daughter!
