When you walk through the wait, the end always seems a far off dream, seemingly there to taunt you with its allure of all the joy you have attributed to its existence.  Yet you persist, knowing that if ever determination wins out, your heart will be the richer for it, and thereby the tears, the anxiety, the simply not knowing will all prove themselves worthwhile.  

Such is the story of this beautiful couple, and what I love so deeply about their perseverance is how they long to intently pour into those in the wait.  They are turning what was heartache for them into understanding for others.  Understanding that only those in the wait can fully share.  May every piece of our stories be just that but an opportunity to love another in a way that only you can.
