When we were pregnant with our first little baby, our 3 year old nephew told us that "we had a baby crocodile in my belly". Still healing from our miscarriage, we are praying for more "baby crocodiles"...

Heaven is For Real by Todd Burpo.

Following my miscarriage, I was told about the book Heaven is For Real by Todd Burpo. It is the true account of a little boy who went to Heaven while having a difficult medical procedure. This little boy 'meets' his sister in Heaven. It turns out, his mother had a miscarriage that the boy couldn't have possibly known about (he was a baby when it happened, and it was never really talked about). This gives me such hope that one day we will get to meet our baby in Heaven one day.

In my Bible Study, I was asked to think of a difficult situation, and four things for which I can thank God about that situation. I thought of our miscarriage. I am thankful for the strength from God to keep trying, the good relationship and love of my husband, the support of my family and friends, and that there were no complications. It is a great way to put a different perspective on it!
