It has been almost 4 years since my last post. It is amazing how much has happened between now and then - I finished pharmacy school, enjoyed 4 more years of marriage, added a new pup, bought our first home and experienced the absolute greatest blessing and heartache. Life then seemed so 'grown-up', fun and yet sometimes challenging... but it is unreal how a few more years of life can make a difference.
I wanted to start back blogging a bit (ha, not like I really blogged much initially!) to record my thoughts and feelings and to see how God will work in our lives. I want to look back and be able to see my heart now, to record our 'story' and the details of it, and to watch miracles unfold before us... because I know God is going to use Blake for great things beyond our comprehension.
The name of our blog is funny: Murphy's Law. It basically means that anything that can go wrong will go wrong. Matthew and I always joke that we live Murphy's Law... but we say that in humor not in negativity. Even through this time in our lives we think we are living it out - but really we know Blake was not taken from us because of our namesake but for a much greater purpose than we will know. 
Jeremiah 29:11 'For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
