I’ve been trying to write this posts for weeks, but where do you even start? There are so many emotions around the Holidays. A few things that got me through the Holidays while waiting for a little one to join us
1. It’s okay to feel lonely
It’s okay to feel lonely as though you are missing a loved one, because in fact you are. You are missing a piece of your family. You are missing something you want so bad to love on. It’s okay to feel that. It’s okay to feel lonely.
2. It’s okay to take a break
It’s okay to take some time for yourself. that might be taking a walk by yourself or with your spouse to get away for a little bit. I remember years of Holidays of having baby announcements and new little ones in our family wondering why them and not us? Don’t you know Lord that we want a little one? Don’t you know our family isn’t complete yet? It’s okay to take a little break
3. It’s okay to feel what you feel.
We all have our own emotions. I don’t know the emotions you are going through right now, but know it’s okay to feel it. It doesn’t make you any less of a person.
Above all, remember this. This is so important to remember: we may not know timing and I’m not going to lie- it’s tough; but something I forgot for far too long and something I hope you never forget. YOU ARE LOVED. You are not loved any less because you are going through this. You are a beautiful Child of God, who is loved dearly.
