Selfishly, I want to throw a giant pity party for myself--and you would be invited. But I'm not, so you don't need to post it on your calendar:) I thought I would save you all some trouble.
All I wanted for Christmas was a baby. A baby that had no home. I wanted to dress this baby up in Christmas dress clothes, take Christmas pictures and send out family Christmas cards, from the 3 of us. Right now, there is an ache in my heart as I celebrate Christmas with my family of 2 instead.
I don't know why we don't have a baby this Christmas. I don't know why God chose to close this door. I don't know why this is not the Christmas that I will become a proud mama.
But there is a baby.
A baby that brought hope.
A baby that brought reconciliation.
A baby that brought redemption.
A baby that brought peace.
A baby that grew up to give His life for me
A baby that was born fully man and fully God.
And because of that baby, I can celebrate Christmas.
