My Amazing Journey part 3

 The thought of triplets weighed heavy on my mind. All I could think about was the odd one out. The thought of twins was something that seemed easier. Mommy, daddy, baby, baby. Playing musical chairs with three of them seemed like a lot of work for someone that lacks in multi-tasking skills.

 After a while I figured I'll just make the best of the situation.

 Now Lynn was doing what all good mothers do. She was buying books, following a diet plan, buying all the furniture, etc., etc.. While I was just going about my business. My opinion I don't think too many men are prepared for parenthood. Women, you were born with great nurturing values. I commend all of you. You are really the backbone to any good family.

Time was really flying by. I was working a ton of overtime at work in order for us to upgrade to a bigger house. We had a plan and we were dedicated to making it work.

Now I don't remember the details and dates, but I believe we were at the 12 week mark when we went in for our next ultra-sound.

I remember the first one really well. One thing that I thought was a little odd was in two of the three eggs the babys were right in the center of the egg. In the other egg the baby was hugging in the corner. I wanted to ask the doctor about it, but I figured that since he didn't bring it up then it probably wasn't an issue.

So as the picture appears on the monitor I remember looking for that egg that looked different. It looked the same as it did the first time. Then I looked at the other two and they were like twice the size. I knew what that meant right away. I had an empty feeling I must candidly admit. One thing I have learned is you cannot control what your mind thinks. I can easilly say that I was completely torn over this. I was pondering wheather I should write what my thoughts were. Then it dawned on me that God wants everyone to know how he works through people. So for me to say that I was a little relieved over this was probably close to what I was thinking. I do remember worrying about Lynn and how she felt about losing one of our babies.

Now I tend to over analyze situations. As I sit here writing, my thoughts are turning to what God's plan may have been. I believe he wanted me to take this a little more serious. I wouldn't say he wanted to teach me a lesson. He wanted me to find him. And in order for that to occur I needed to face the biggest trial of my life. A trial that I very much thank him for!!
