When 3 is NOT the magic number

Well, in basketball 3-pointers are a good thing, in baseball a triple play, also good. triple coupon day at the grocery store, size 3 pants, and a triple scoop of ice cream-All great. A 3 on your beta Hcg test - NOT GOOD. So, today 14 days after our transfer we found out it didn't take. I know it seems like a time NOT to be making light or joking but its my biggest fault I guess to want to make it O.K. with a little laughter. Although I am sad, so sad for C & E I cant forget that everything happens for a reason and this too is in God's hands. I have to say this has been a wild new journey, but I couldnt have asked for better people to go through it with. I believe God places people in your life at unexpected times and for various reasons and the most wonderful friendships grow! I feel like I have known them forever, like they are family and although again todays news makes me very sad, I know that this is only the beginning of our journey and that we will only become closer and it will be even more special when it happens! To my new "sister" C, I have enjoyed our talks everyday and our get-togethers. You are a wonderful person and deserve all that you desire and I promise to do all I can to help you make it happen. And to our angel, Elena, who has walked us through this process, She has been such a "sweetie" through this process. she allowed herself to be emotionally involved in our case and it made it so much more special and easier for all of us. This will not be the end of my blog as I know our biggest journey is still in front of us. In one of my favorite songs by christian artist, Natalie Grant titled "Held" says that God didnt promise that bad things wouldnt happen, BUT, he did promise to love us and to hold us in his hands through these hard and sad times! I love you C&E and cant wait until July to start the next phase of our journey.
