Unanswered prayers

Today I am thankful for unanswered prayers and a God who has other plans.
This day 6 years ago Andrew and I found out we had lost our first baby at 12 weeks pregnant. We had never intended to have children so young (we always thought maybe at 30) so when I found out I was pregnant we were shocked, but day after day we began to love the idea of having a baby.
This pregnancy changed our lives forever!  I lost my job (because of missing too many days for doctor's appointments and being sick) at the post office where I was getting ready to go full time. I would have never of quit that job and we would have stayed around Louisville Kentucky. It was because of all that went on that we uprooted and moved to Wyoming. It was also because of this pregnancy that we knew we DID want kids and we wanted them sooner than later. 
I have also had a few close friends who have went through similar situations and have been able to help them through their pain. 
It took a long time to understand why everything happened, but looking back our lives have been altered forever because of this accidental pregnancy and I know God had a plan all along.
