As I mentioned I have not dealt with infertility personally but I do have a very dear friend Krystal who spent the 7+ years on her journey to becoming a mom. As a friend, I did my best to be there for her, to walk along side her, to support her, and to just listen. I realize now that Krystal struggled far more than I could have ever imagined. I shared a little about Krystal and her husband Brandon's story of infertility just over a year ago, looking back now I can't believe how much has happened since that point and how far they have come, personally and in their journey to having a child. There were so many heart aches and disappointments along their journey, but there was also glimmers of joy and hope.

This video helped me understand so much, as a friend who has not gone through the trials and tribulations of infertility I realize just how badly Krystal, and so many other women struggling just want to be a mom.
If you weren't aware this week is National Infertility Awareness Week and Amanda over at A Royal Daughter blog is sharing her personal story of infertility all week I hope you'll go by her blog to hear her heart about her personal struggles.
Hi Christina, thank you SO much for sharing my story with your community. I'm so thankful for support and encouragement and for people spreading awareness about infertility.
