I'm not pregnant....
I will write more later but I wanted to get the news out to our faithful readers.
I'm chosing to keep my eyes focused on God...but I'm going to take some time to grieve.

I prayed for this child and the Lord has granted me what I asked of him. 1 Samuel 1:27
About Me
- Kara B. Oliver
- The love of my life, Jason Oliver and I are on the track to become parents! In vitro fertilization is basically our only option at having biological children. After two failed IVF cycles we have shifted the focus to adoption! I use this blog as a form of therapy. Sharing our story helps me cope...keeps our friends and family informed...and I've found it helps others as well!
