Throughout pregnancy, events happen that are beyond our control. Events that shape our character, rattle our confidence, and remind us of our frail condition. Unfortunately, one of those events happened to us on Sunday morning: we miscarried.
God allows us to walk through events in life, not around them. We think our wealth, skills and abilities, and status allows us to avoid those events. But, God uses these events to bring clarity, prove Who is in control, stretch us beyond what we thought we could previously attain, and ultimately strengthens our character.
We ask that you do three things for us while we walk through this:
1) Pray for continued health for Leigh Anne, as she is the one who physically and emotionally feels the pain of miscarriage.
2) Find the silver lining in rough times: After trying for months, now we know we can get pregnant!
3) Slow down, take notice of, and hug your loved ones a bit tighter.
We want to thank those folks who celebrated our pregnancy with us and look forward to celebrating with you again soon.
