Dancing in Uncertainty

No, it's not me dancing in uncertainty.  Although any time I dance, it's uncertain at best!

But I have danced a particular dance many times.  Which is why I want to share with you a new blogger that is dear to me for a number of reasons:
This is Diane ~ Pig Pen and Jen's cousin.  Pretty little thing, ain't she?  She will probably kill me for stealing her picture!  That is, if she were anyone else she probably would!

But not Diane.  She is one of the softest, kindest souls a person could ever meet.  Which is why I would be beyond honored if you, my dear friends and followers, would take a moment and hop over to her brand new blog called...

There you will find the story of Diane and Bill's life, love, struggles with infertility and what they are praying for now.

Most of you know that Pig Pen and I too have struggled with infertility for many years.  It is definitely an uncertain situation and one that deserves a hefty hug.  So let's rally our support! 

And please remember, there is power in prayer!  Please keep them in yours if you would.
Matthew 18:19
Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven.
If you would, hop on over...maybe say hello, wish her well, tell a joke, make her day, encourage her to plant a garden, dance, get some chickens, feed the hog, get the call, pick peaches...  I think you get it! 
Dancing in Uncertainty
Thank you, you know I love you all!

    You made me smile with your comment of a certain "dance" that you do. When SM and I were trying to have kids I called it the "ovulation dance". Those were some fun memories. Poor guy...he just HAD to grin and bear it...&;)

    We didn't know about this part of your and Pig Pen's life. We can definitely pray. That's something we do around here. Thanks for sharing this with us.

    Bless her heart! And yours, too, for just being you. I will check out her blog. I think we all dance in uncertainty, in more ways than one. If it's not infertility, it's something else. You are a sweet friend, I'm glad she has you! What a ride it must be. Prayers to all of you.

    As soon as Irene passes I'm definitely checking her blog out! In the meantime I'll add her to our thoughts and prayers, I spent years and years experiencing that pain and I know that support from others really does help with whatever the outcome life brings :)
