Lessons Learned (and Learning...)

I've slowly been trying to put into very simple words the various lessons God has been teaching us through our journey in infertility. I think of it like this: If infertility were a school, these would be the class names and lesson titles in which we are studying and learning. The list I've been compiling is in no way exhaustive, but it begins to at least give an idea of the diversity of subjects upon which God has been lecturing and examining us. And as we work our way through our years at the school of infertility, we know that our Divine Headmaster surely has many more classes and lessons prepared for us...
