We are Jonathan and Rachel Womack. We've been married for 11 years. Jonathan has recently graduated from medical school and will be applying for residency in the very near future. I (Rachel) am a teacher by trade. I began my career teaching middle school band, then I taught kindergarten in the Caribbean while Jonathan finished his basic sciences. Now I run a small jewelry business with my best friend (her name is Rachel too!), I am a Sentence Distributor, and I chase my beautiful 3 year old son Greysen around all day. Our lives are exciting and joyful and everything in between!
I began writing this blog just before we completed our stint in the West Indies where Jonathan was completing his medical school basic sciences. That blog is called Caribbean Daydreaming and it's where I talk about our experiences living in the Caribbean, Jonathan's medical school journey, and just life in general. In January of 2014 I started this blog to chronicle our journey through the process of IVF. We were successful with that first process and I gave birth to my handsome baby Greysen in April of 2015! It does take boldness to share this stuff, to open yourself up to questions and even negativity, but if my story can inspire even one other woman, one other couple, to be bold in sharing their story, I've succeeded. Infertility shouldn't be a silent struggle, but sadly many times it is.
I hope my story inspires you. I hope you will follow along as Jonathan and I set out "Thinking Positive" with our hands and hearts wrapped tightly around the hope that our hearts' desire will become a reality soon. We are hoping and praying for Baby Womack #2 with our second journey through the process of IVF. Wait and hope with excited expectation for what God will do with our journey and our story along the way!
