The new girl

Hello, blog world.  I'm polkadot.

Let me just say that this blog was not my idea...it was DH's idea!  Almost from the first day I stumbled upon a Catholic infertility blog, he was telling me, "You should start a blog!"  HAHA, very funny.  Me, write a blog?  I don't even comment on other blogs.  But he was convinced I have a lot to say.  Could it be that I talk his ear off, and he wants some of that diverted elsewhere?  Hmmm...I wonder.  (He denies it, of course.)   :)

The title of this blog comes from a quote from one of my favorite movies.  (BTW—If you haven't seen Bella, I highly recommend it.)  How many times have I told God my plans?  More than I can count.  I wanted to be married by a certain age, have lots of kids, be a stay-at-home mom, the list goes on...  I have given God cause for many a chuckle and probably some roaring belly laughs from time to time, too.  :)  And God has been teaching me in several obvious ways, infertility being the most recent, that He is in charge, not me, and that He has a far better plan than any I could imagine.  And I am learning to trust Him in the process.
