A Week Later...

And we're doing good! Things have gotten so much better since my last post! I had a few more cramps after I last posted, but nothing too bad. Emotionally, I think Mark and I are in a really good place. Basically, it happened, and there's nothing to do about it. The only thing we get to choose is how we deal with it. And we choose to move on. We're kinda happy that this happened on Father's day because we will ever forget this baby. Every Father's Day, we will spend a few moments remembering this baby and praising God for the week that I was pregnant.

We have no plans to try for another baby right now. We will probably wait until Magdalena is two before we try again. But, on the other hand, the baby we lost was a COMPLETE surprise, so obviously the timing isn't completely up us. On thing that I have learned is how satisfied I am with my current life. I am so blessed to have Mark and Magdalena! I have learned to be joyful in what I have right now, instead of looking to the future for happiness. If I never had another child, I would feel very content with my family. More children will add to the joy, but I finally feel like I am okay where I am at.

Here's some new Maggie pictures:
