Adventures in Brewsterland

• Aug. 19, 2007 - Lord, please give me patience

Right now, as I mentioned  earlier, we are looking for a house. My husband has stated that he wants to continue to rent for a few more months to get some things in order before we get a mortgage. We have to move out of the house we live in now before the winter in any case, which means moving twice probably within six months or so.

 UGH.

 I trust and respect my husbands decision. I also am very frustrated because I feel like I am living in Limbo. I just want to get it done and over with. I know that God has the perfect place for us and I just need to be patient. That is a lot harder than it sounds.

On another note, things are moving along with my new business. I had another photo shoot today which went very well. And I have another prospect for September.  I started my own portrait and wedding photography business in July. You can visit my online gallery at:

Photography is a passion of mine and I am so blessed to be able to do it for a living. (Of course I hardy am making "a living" at it right now)  I truly only want it to be a part time thing right now as I do not want to take any time away from my duties at home.

Oh yeah, I had a crazy dream last night that I had a baby, which is pretty interesting since I had a tubal ligation 7 years ago. What was particularly interesting is that we had a home birth. I know this is probably not a big deal to a lot of you but I am a little on the skiddish side when it comes to these things and my husband would definetly look at me in a strange way if I said I wanted to have a home birth.  Don't get me wrong, It strikes me as a very beautiful and natural thing and I would actually look into it if I were pregnant, I just never actually thought about it before now.

I think it was a mistake having my tubes tied and would and have considered having a reversal surgery. My husband said that he wants to wait until we are settled into out home first and then we'll talk about it more. I also think that if God wants me to have another baby then something like a tied tube will not get in His way.

If anyone has any experience with reversals or tubal ligation thoughts in general, I would love to hear it.

Thank you Lord for Giving me the patience that I need to carry out your commandments and to be the wife and mother you would have me be! I am trusting in your word that whatsoever is required will be supplied.

Posted by netherfieldmom
is such a drag! I like the idea of it, because change can be fun..but the reality is very tough. We bought a major fixer-upper and my husband is a hard-working, talented, project-completer (thank GOD!), but I still have particle board for the backsplash behind my kitchen sink and we have a giant room full of things that haven't been unpacked in five years! (He has done sooooooo much already.) Keep in mind, that if you want God to develop your patience, it's going to be through challenges.

• Aug. 20, 2007 - Homebirth

Posted by 2girlsand2boys
Did you know I had C at home? The homebirth was the most wonderful experience of my life and I would do it again in a heart beat!

I don't know anyone who has had a tubal ligation reversed, unfortunately. I think you are right though: If it is God's will they will find a way!

Have a great day!
