Litany of the Transfiguration through the eyes of infertility
Let us remember the ways that we hope to be transformed. To remember our suffering ends with God's loving resurrection of our broken souls and bodies. To know that we are not called to know every detail of God's plan for us, but to let our lives be forever changed by our constant "yes" to His love and will.

A trio of hope
Children do not establish a family, only the love of the two in matrimony under God does. I look at Saints Anne and Joachim, and how they direct us back to their daughter, who directs us back to her son, Love itself. If they can still have hope in God despite their pain and uncertainty, maybe I can take the first step in simply uttering a small, "Love I trust you".

The cross we didn't choose: grappling with permanent infertility
There are losses in life that are visible, and there are losses that are invisible. This one feels like both. We didn't lose a child we held in our arms, but we lost the expectation of children conceived through our love. We lost the ease of a future we had always assumed. We lost something deeply intimate and deeply personal.
