I've started counting Piper's movements and she's moving more than I realized. They feel different and aren't as "violent" now. I've also been packing like crazy since I'm moving on Saturday so, being more active than usual might be part of it.

Today's the day that we spent nearly 5 months of my pregnancy excitedly waiting for. Today's the day they told us he'd be born. It's hard to believe it's been 4 months since he was with us, four months of moving forward but never moving on. I honestly don't know that I believe everything happens for a reason anymore, but I do wholeheartedly believe that God can use all things for good, and my Enoch was the definition of good in this world. He only knew love, he never knew physical or emotional pain, and even though it's hard for me because I wanted him here with me more than anything, when he opened his eyes the first thing he saw was the face of Jesus. I've learned so many things on this journey. Patience, humility, strength, courage, resilience, compassion - but most importantly, I've learned that it's okay to be broken. I'll always be broken, but just like a mosaic created by shattered glass, I can piece my heart back together into something more beautiful than it was before. More loving, more kind, more humble.
