I have seen this on several blogs. I love the words to this song. (I have copied the words below so you can follow along if you want.) It describes exactly how I feel and I know there are several women out there that feel the same way. It has been so helpful for me to know that there are others out there going through the same thing. So, I just want those of you out there to know that you are not alone. Mark and I have been trying for 2 1/2 years. We have had 2 miscarriages. One comfort to me has been to know that God will bless us all with the desires of our hearts when the time is right. We just need to make sure we are doing all we can to prepare ourselves to be good parents. Our little ones are watching from above and they will come when they feel our family is ready to have them. I can't wait to be a mom and I know that Heavenly Father hears our prayers. We will pray for all of you that are struggling as well and just remember that you and not alone.
Jenny was my best friend. Went away one summer. Came back with a secret She just couldn't keep. A child inside her, Was just too much for her So she cried herself to sleep. And she made a decision Some find hard to accept. To young to know that one day She might live to regret.
But I would die for that. Just to have one chance To hold in my hands All that she had. I would die for that.
I've been given so much, A husband that I love. So why do I feel incomplete? With every test and checkup We're told not to give up. He wonders if it's him. And I wonder if it's me. All I want is a family, Like everyone else I see. And I won't understand it If it's not meant to be.
Cause I would die for that. Just to have one chance To hold in my hands All that they have. I would die for that.
And I want to know what it's like To bring a dream to life. For that kind of love, What I'd give up! I would die for that.
Sometimes it's hard to conceive, With all that I've got, And all I've achieved, What I want most Before my time is gone, Is to hear the words "I love you, Mom."
I would die for that. Just to have one chance To hold in my hands What so many have I would die for that.
And I want to know what it's like To bring a dream to life. How I would love What some give up. I would die ... I would die for that.
But I would die for that. Just to have one chance To hold in my hands All that she had. I would die for that.

If you ever need anything i am always here for you!! your are such a great friend and when you are a mother your children will be so lucky. I love you and i hope everything is going great.
This song is so powerful...I just cried and cried. The desire to nurture in women is so strong. It just makes me think of all the things I DO have including health and a great husband. You're doing such a great job!
I bet it took a lot of guts to post this and am always amazed by you. You are a strong woman and I don't know how you do it. I'm so sorry, but you know that one day you will be a mom and a wonderful mom. I wish you all the happiness in the world, because you deserve it. Love ya!
Oh nicole! I am so glad you love this song! It gives me hope! Especially the part where the woman holds up the sign to say she just found out they were having twins;)
Believe me, through all the disappointments, heartaches and doctors appointments the Lord will answer your prayers and comfort you! I am here any time if you have questions or need to vent! I have been there!!!

It is nice to have someone who has been there and knows exactly how you feel. It is so hard for women who don't understand to know what to say. Not being able to have children is for sure one of the hardest trials a woman will ever face.
I am so excited to meet you at thanksgiving and that we have that bond that many women have, a bond that we wouldn't wish on any one, but a bond that unites women together to love and support but also rejoice in their success of finally experiencing the greatest blessing of motherhood.
It will be your turn soon. It does get easier. You will be a mommy. You will look back at your journey to get there and be a better mommy for it! I promise:)

That is a very powerful song. It reminded me of so many thoughts and feelings I experienced before finaly getting my little Landon. Made me feel like showing my appreciation for being a mom more. Sometimes I let the hard times show more than I should. You are going to be a great mom. No matter how you get those children here. This experiece will make you stronger, and hopefuly a lot more patient during difficult times with toddlers and preschoolers. LOL I love you.
Dear Nicole and Mark-
Oh, how we love you! Our hearts are grieving along with yours and our prayers are said along with yours. Our desire is right along with yours as well, that you will be blessed with children in your home to complete your little family. We know the Lord will bless you as your desire to have a family is a righteous one. But it will come in the Lord's own way and in His own time. Sometimes it's hard to be patient for those things you ache for. Even for those things that you know are right. You know how much we love you!! :) Love, Mom and Dad Oaks
