The beginning..

Let me begin this blog with a few things. This blog will be extremely intimate. It will function as a place for me to discuss my emotions, fears, and hope with the journey of becoming a Gestational Surrogate. I want to introduce myself.. I am 26 years old, a mother of two beautiful children, and a former member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. When recently I became aware of certain facts about the Mormon church, I began my own journey of  research and have since left the church.

After I had my daughter, people would ask me if my husband and I were done having children. I would say "Yes we are done." and feel this pull within my soul, as if a little one waiting to come to earth was in my ear saying "No your not! One more, don't forget about me!" I had thought about surrogacy before, but the LDS church was very vocal in their expression against Surrogacy. This bothered me, along with the other facts I learned about the LDS church, so I left. I thought to myself, surrogacy is the answer! I want to bring children to earth for couples who long to have children. I am now on an amazing spiritual journey where I am rediscovering my love for God as a being who loves ALL people, and have been approved for surrogacy with an agency in San Diego!!

Surrogacy will be a very spiritual journey for me as I believe I am bringing a child into the world for a family who God feels deserves the joy and blessing of parenthood. I am also really wanting to work with a Gay couple! This is also new for me, as I would be discouraged from this idea by the LDS church.

I know some people who read this blog post will be disappointed to hear I have left the Mormon church, but please know that I am the happiest I have been in a long time, and that my journey in life and in love has led me to where I am. I am very excited to become a surrogate, and hope you enjoy the journey with me!
