This blog is about an imperfect person who is doing her best to become a better Catholic wife, mother and woman. I have struggled with infertility, self-image and many other things in my life, but as my father always said "You must live by Faith." So therefore I strive to live "by faith" and let God guide my every footstep.

Alone
How can I feel so alone and yet be surrounded by people who love and care for and about me? I long to feel "normal". What is normal anyway? I have never been that. I have always had some form of label that made me the odd girl out. I don't want to be on the outside looking in anymore. How do I become normal? I don't want to struggle to get the things I desire most in life. I want to be one of the women posting cute notes and pictures about how they are expecting their first, second, third child. Don't get me wrong I love my daughter and if she is the only child I ever have I wouldn't change it for the world. But my heart longs for more yet my body stands in its way. I want my Dad back. He died 15 years ago and on nights like tonight I want him back. I need a great big bear hug from him and for him to tell me it will be alright. It seems all I can do is cry but it doesn't help. No matter how hard I try I just can't make this feeling go away. How can it be happening all over again? Am I really going to have to struggle another 3 years for a child? I am about to be 33 I don't have 3 years to waste!
