Mills Family

Everything happens for a reason :)

This weekend was definitely bitter-sweet for Johnny and I. We went up to Rexburg this weekend to see Kim, Josh and Morgen. It was a lot of fun being able to see my family :) When we got in on Friday, I had the opportunity to go clean the Rexburg Temple sealing rooms with Morgen and I believe that it helped me to cope with what happened next. On Saturday night around midnight, I got really sick and could not fall asleep...a couple hours later, I miscarried our Baby Mills at 9 weeks. I was definitely in shock at first, but over the last couple days, I can't help but feel peace within me.

I know that everything happens for a reason. Johnny and I feel blessed for the love and support of our family and friends and we know that this experience will help us to better prepare for the future. We know that this isn't the end of the world and we know that when the time is truly right, we will be blessed to have children come into our lives. Until then, we will continue to be optimistic and look to the future. As Johnny always tells me, "Find joy in your journey".
