My Turn to Post....

Well Jamie has been wanting me to post something on our blog for quite sometime now and on a chilly day in Austin, TX I decided that 2/10 was that day.

I want to start off saying that I have had the privilege to be married to this beautiful, kind and loving woman for over 7 years now. We have been through a lot together and our marriage has grown over the course of these 7+ years. Some of you may see silly posts on our Facebook pages, like Happy Dating Anniversary or if you have talked to us you may have heard many silly facts about or dating/marriage.


Here are a few:
- Dating Anniversary: January 27, 1999
- First Kiss: March 13, 1999 (Don't ask!!!)
- Engagement: August 2, 2001
- Married: October 12, 2002

These days are not important to some but to us they are because we get to constantly remind ourselves how and where we started our lives together. At one point we were such great friends that I didn't see anything happening past that, although she did for quite some time yet never spoke up.

These last few months have been an exciting and trying time for us and as many of you know that Jamie and I have been trying to have children for quite sometime. We have been seeing a specialist here in ATX who is great, and are now on our 2nd round of the HSG cycle, not much to do on my part right now except try to be a good and understanding husband. I pray for strength for Jamie and I during this process because we know that all things happen in God's time and he has the master plan for us.

Isaiah 41:10
Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

My prayers go out to all families who are in the same situation as us and want to grow their family. I ask you Lord that you give them strength to continue believing that all things happen on your time!

Love in Christ,
~Ben
