Great Expectations.

58600_4561

The girls told me last night that they prayed for a baby sister.  As the story unfolded they explained that they will only ask ONCE, because if they continue asking it will look like they don’t have faith  and God doesn’t honor prayers that aren’t prayed in faith.  So they prayed ONCE with childlike faith and have great expectations.  As do we!

I am soooo late chiming in, here, but CONGRATULATIONS!!!! You make the most beautiful children, so boy or girl, this baby will be PRECIOUS!! I hope you are feeling well. I know what it is like to have the physical and emotional effort of being pregnant paired with the physical and emotional job of raising children 24-7. Praying for strength and energy and joy for you, friend.

Somewhere towards the end of my first trimester. I'll know more precisely on the 23rd (ultrasound)!

I'm very slow in wishing my congrats and blessings. I just re found your blog and remembered why I loved it so!

As a mamma of 5, who desires more but can't for health reasons, I'll be following along in spirit!!

Prayers for a blessed pregnancy!
