I know that part of it has to do with the weather getting nicer, but lately I just can't help but feel so happy and so grateful for all of God's goodness to us.
I sometimes just find myself smiling when I think about how nice it is to feel some joy in life again. I wouldn't say I've been depressed or anything like that, but definitely the last year and a half to two years have taken a toll on us as we've been through some pretty stressful situations with moving our lives and adjusting to all this crazyness in a new place.
I'm finally starting to feel at the place where I'm just happy again. Happier then I've felt in a long time, to be perfectly honest, and it feels really good! Although I miss all of our friends back home terribly, I feel so, so thankful that God has provided us with some new friends here that we really love. And of course, to top it off, our prayers have been answered and we have this little baby boy that we've wanted for so long that we'll get to meet in a few months. I'm finally starting to feel like we can root ourselves here in Madison and be perfectly content to stay here as long as God want us to, without always wondering in the back of our minds when we can leave.
Yes, I know there are a fair share of stresses coming up in the future with the arrival of our little guy. I still don't know how we're going to manage on one income, but I feel so blessed and so secure that God is taking care of us and will continue to do so, that I just can't really stress about it even if I wanted to.
God has been so good to us and I can't help but just feel this intense amount of gratitude to Him for all that He's brought us through in the last few years. I am so, so overwhelmed with thankfullness to Him, because I know all of the good things that have come our way are only because of Him.
