Our Hands Are Full With Hearts To Match

Two more down...

I already posted this on my original blog but I'm posting it here as well. I completed a couple more of my goals. Man...a couple doesn't sound like much compared to 101. But it felt like a great accomplishment to get this done. I finally made a wall saying for our kitchen. I had wanted to for a while and kept putting it off. But with a goal to sell my Cricut (dye cutting machine) in order to put the money towards my new camera (which I love) it was a good combination goal.

In selecting a quote I wanted something that would go with the picture but that would also remind us that despite it being a struggle and difficult to come to terms with infertility that it could be done. And that hopefully in the end we'll have success someday. I originally wanted the quote to be something like "In order to accomplish great things, one must take great risks" but then I asked for Jeff's advice and he came up with this quote by Mark Twain that he really liked. It definitely seemed to fit and I love it. Going forward will not mean that we aren't afraid it will only mean that we are resisting our fear and trying to master it in order to gain something greater.
