The sweet innocence of a 3 year old

Easton has been so good through all of our pregnancies. He has had to go with me to get my blood drawn so many times that he knows the colors of the tourniquet and tube before they grab them. Today while we were at a craft store he grabbed green, white and blue spools of thread and pretended to draw my blood. It was so cute. Then tonight I had a breakdown and Easton said "it's ok Mom the baby will come next time! It's with Jesus!" I hope and pray that we will have another baby soon but am really struggling with why we have had to go through 4 pregnancy losses in 6 months.

A friend of mine just had her baby 1 week ago and we took her dinner a few nights ago. She showed me her new baby boy and my eyes just welled with tears and my heart just ached! It was so sweet to see that precious baby but so very hard at the same time. For Christmas Brandon got me a picture of Christ holding a infant and that is the image that I think of through all of this. Our next child is just not ready yet (or we are not) so our Savior is holding our sweet infant until it is time.
