At the beginning of this year, I had no clue I'd be pregnant. Every pregnancy is nothing less than a miracle and this one is especially miraculous because it was not even in our plans. It is something I can't possibly take for granted. On top of that, being able to carry this baby to at least 35 weeks is as astounding as getting pregnant in the first place. I have known too many dear friends who have had difficulty conceiving and bringing a baby to term, that I cannot take this lightly. So in spite of all the unknowns about the future, I'm humbled and thankful to be able to have this precious soul in my womb. What a miracle. What an honor.
So per doctor's orders, I'm "taking it easy" and enjoying the fact that God is putting His finishing touches on our son before we meet him at last.
I leave you with a picture of how we've been enjoying our time while we're still a family of four:

Sue, I love this post for many reasons. First it made me laugh out loud as I approached the nice photo treat of Marcus!!! Secondly, it brought a smile to my face knowing this child is being born into this world to two amazing parents! It's very heart warming to see your gratitude for the amazing gift of life. Being in this extended season of waiting can be hard sometimes, so thank you for your acknowledgement of that to the couples who are trying and who are so very happy for you, but so very sad for ourselves at times.
praying for you today and cracking up over that photo!!
