This is what I was thinking as well.

All of them are lovely, but I prefer the spelling "Clara". Vera is my least favorite; it just feels too old imo.

What helps with my DH is making him say the name out loud,...

I'm sorry you're going thru this, but I truly admire your strength and good judgement. It sounds like your conversation happened with God's timing and your friend was also very open to the discussion...

Congratulations!! *sticky dust* KUP! :)

On a vacation whim, I found a tankini at Walmart in Op brand. It doesn't show her belly no matter how much she moves, unless she lifts her top. :eyeroll:
I bought her normal size 3T and it fits...

5/24 Update:

Thank you for the prayers. K passed away peacefully.
Unfortunately, more bad news. My lifelong friend let me know last night that her mother was diagnosed with bladder cancer.

I'm very sorry you have to struggle with this. Praying for you.

DD has been in Mommy & Me Gymnastics classes since she was 26 months and they do them several times during each class. Now she's doing more at home and getting at that age when she's becoming a...

I wanted to add in naming I chose to either use "mommy instinct" by gender or pick a gender neutral name. I didn't think it mattered if I got to heaven and found out Samuel was a girl. :)

I'm very sorry to hear of your loss. Its a devastating experience regardless how far along you were.

I had my 5th miscarriage in January. What I learned with my first is that I had to do a lot of...

I have been reading DD her children's Bible and I bought some "He Lives!" bookmarks to color with a depiction of Jesus on them. She'll color them and pass them out to family.

Thank you everyone for your kind comments and understanding. (Also for sharing that verse, Polly)
I blocked them from my feeds and will probably keep it that way for a while. I pray for them,...

Lately, I've seen "anti-Christian" posts by some of my fb friends. One was my brother "humanist/atheist" (his description of himself) another is a life-long friend (atheist). They both posted very...
