The first couple of weeks of school are finally behind me. It's always a rocky start, but things are starting to settle down. I enjoy being in a routine again; It feels like I get so much more accomplished when I have a schedule. I think once again my "Type A" personality is a factor in that. :)

My family has had many blessings this past month. David got a teaching job at the same school I work at. He's working in the Special Education department. It was a blessing as we thought he was going to go yet another year without a teaching job. My mom, who has a severely hurinated disk in her back, is doing better. She was advised to have surgery, but she seems to be healing without the surgery as we've been praying. God has been good and I know He will continue to be.

As I've stated in many of my previous blogs, Ryan and I are not seeing my fertility specialist at this time. This month I did ovulate on my own! I was pretty psyched about that. Some months it has happened, but there is no guarantee if or when it will. I figure if I ovulate naturally, my body is at least trying to do what it's supposed to do. It gives me some hope that I could get pregnant naturally. Of course, we would prefer to get pregnant naturally, but we're putting it into God's hands. He will provide when He sees it's time.

God is providing in ways that I don't understand, but I see. He's done so many things for my family this past year. Through all the struggles, He's been my comfort. He promises me in His Word that it's going to be worth all of the pain and turmoil. Praise Him for that!!!
