At Home, Arlington, Massachusetts
 
May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble!
May the name of the God of Jacob protect you!
May he send you help from the sanctuary
            and give you support from Zion!
May he remember all your offerings
            and regard with favor your burnt sacrifices!
 
May he grant you your heart's desire
            and fulfill all your plans!
May we shout for joy over your salvation,
            and in the name of our God set up our banners!
May the Lord fulfill all your petitions!
 
Now I know that the Lord saves his anointed;
            he will answer him from his holy heaven
            with the saving might of his right hand.
Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
            but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
They collapse and fall,
            but we rise and stand upright.
 
O Lord, save the king!
            May he answer us when we call.
 
- Psalm 20

    About the Project

    This is a very personal project. It tracks my growth and development as I journeyed toward motherhood over the recent years. It doesn't document every experience I had, and probably neglects my more joyful and peaceful moments in the frenzy of trying to communicate my fears, anxieties, and doubts. If you are a friend or loved one, please do not let anything you read here overshadow what you know of me personally. If you are a stranger, please remember that a living and flawed person stands behind these words. To all my guests here, please understand these are not political statements and try to extend me grace, even as I share my failures and foibles - I have repented of much of what I share. I don't share this journal as an exemplar, but rather out of the desire to share my hope that entrance to motherhood does not need to be a fearful thing - despite the very real fears I have fought against. Motherhood is simply a part of life and one through which I am discovering more of myself and my God.

    If you are just finding this for the first time, I humbly suggest you start from the beginning.
