Its Official
Today I have started exhibiting all of the miscarriage symptoms. The baby is gone. We were still hoping for a miracle but I guess God had other plans. Both Andrew and I had the same thought running through our minds, which I thought was interesting- "The Lord gives, and the Lord takes away. Blessed is the Name of the Lord." I suppose people who don't know Jesus would think it wacky that this would give us comfort. But it does. To know that God is Sovereign is huge for us. Still, I feel like hermitting for a week and working through the emotions. I don't suppose its wrong to grieve for a child, as young as it was. I think its easy to take for granted what a delicate dance of perfection human life is. It is so beautifully fragile.

Hi Anneke and Andrew,
i'm so sorry to hear this, i really hoped that it would turn out different!
I think it's good to grieve, even if this new life was so small. You already had feelings for it..
Keep that thought in mind... God knows what best even if it hurts..
I pray that God will embrace you with His love for comfort strength!!
love, annemieke
Anneke, I'm so sorry. Please let me know how you are doing when you get a chance. Love you.
