Patience.
I knew I would eventually blog about this topic just because it's something I think about often so here we go. My husband and I have been married for now 3 years and throughout our whole marriage I always hate answering these questions. "No kids yet?' or "Why don't you guys have kids" or the worst one "What are you guys waiting for?'. Seriously that has to be the most annoying question to hear when your Married and always dreamed of having a huge family.
I seriously feel so down especially when the 1st year passes (nothing happens) then everyone says it's ok maybe next year. 2nd year passes by (still nothing) and now the 3rd year. I am so depressed sometimes just thinking of it. I know we aren't the only ones going thru this cause more than half of our friends are going thru the same thing. It's just really depressing. I'm happy to be a aunty but it really sucks that both my little sister and now my little brother both of kids and I have none. I know that we still could be blessed with kids we just need to be patient.
When we visited Hawaii we met up with Mosi's cousin Lala she was going thru the same thing but this year she got pregnant..=] she waited 5 years and we knew cause we would always talk about the annoying questions from family and friends....I know that one day we will be blessed and if not in this lifetime maybe in the next. Listening to Saturday Session of General conference I felt comforted by the words of Elder Neil. L Andersen as he spoke
Because the bearing of children is a sensitive subject that can be very painful — sharing examples of righteous women who do not have the opportunity to marry and have a family, of righteous couples who marry and find that they are unable to have the children they so anxiously anticipated, or for a husband and wife who planned on having a large family but are blessed with a smaller family — individuals should not be judgmental with one another in this sacred and private responsibility, Elder Andersen said.
"We cannot always explain the difficulties of our mortality," he said. "Sometimes life seems very unfair — especially when our greatest desire is to do exactly what the Lord has commanded. As the Lord's servant I assure you that this promise is certain: 'Faithful members whose circumstances do not allow them to receive the blessings in the eternities, [as] they keep the covenants they have made with God.'"
I get so depressed sometimes especially seeing other people with there children but I know that one day we will have children one day. Until that day comes I will be the best aunty ever...lol....So blessed to have the gospel in my life and to have a better understanding that sometimes things happen for a reason and to not get discouraged we will still have a chance one day.
