Hello
Welcome - I'm so happy you came by! This is where I tell you a little bit about myself. Who am I? I'm the wife of a wonderful man and mom of three boisterous kids - two boys and a girl. A couple of years ago after going through a number of tough circumstances, the Lord began whispering in my heart to write my son Nate's story. As I started to write, He began to heal the places in my heart that had been wounded and broken, little by little, day by day. He began to restore me and show me that He has good plans for my life. He whispered, "Christin, I love you. You are my beloved daughter." So, who am I? I'm the precious daughter of the King.
​
As the Lord has carried me through one challenge after another, I've been learning to put my hope and trust in Him. I'm passionate about sharing my personal stories of prenatal diagnosis and other challenges such as cancer, trauma, and rejection in a way that will bring you hope, healing, and encouragement. My desire is for you to be reminded that you have a loving Father who's always there for you so that you'll be drawn closer to Him. I haven't got it all figured out, but with time I'm becoming more and more like the tree mentioned in Jeremiah 17:7-8. My prayer is that you will too.
"But blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence is in him. He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit."
A Devastating Prenatal Diagnosis
Everything changed in 2016. We had hoped to simply grow our family, but were thrown a curveball when we received a devastating prenatal diagnosis instead. Then began a life-changing and faith-inspiring journey that we could never have anticipated. Ultimately, we had to decide if we'd give God the reins and let Him determine whether our son would survive, or if we'd take matters into our own hands. We embarked on a ride we didn't sign up for -- a roller coaster ride of gut-wrenching twists, turns, and plummets. But in the midst of this harrowing ordeal, the Lord was near and the Lord was at work. He had a much better plan in store than we ever could've imagined. You can read more at "My Story" above.
