It’s hard for me to take a break. It’s hard to set things down. However, I realize it’s time to give myself permission to be. Permission to Be Present I need permission to be present. Social media has been a huge gift to me, especially over the last year. I’ve met some amazing infertility warriors,… Continue reading Permission to Be
I’ve been a planner my whole life. Even as a kid I was always asking “what are we doing next?” or “what are we doing tomorrow?” I liked to have a plan; I want to know what to expect. In general, this is a good thing. It keeps me organized. Planning ahead assures that vacations… Continue reading My New Plan

I’m still not convinced I have the answer, but I’m getting closer. Friends in different stages of life... It’s hard to figure out… Continue reading Where Do I Belong?
A year ago I still felt alone. Yes, I was surrounded by supportive friends and family, but I didn’t have a community of people who truly understood my situation. Today I give thanks for all I’ve experienced and encountered over the last year. Today I give thanks for you. Lindsay Letters For my writing friends...… Continue reading Give Thanks
I always have a plan I had a plan. I knew what I was going to write about this week. It all hinged on getting a project done so I’d have pictures to accompany the writing. Having this plan in place eased my mind because I knew my time to write would be limited. And… Continue reading All is Well
