It's true...finally time to blog...

Well...it's true. We are pregnant! As if you didn't know from the countdown ticker above? We found out a couple of weeks ago and since then I've had several visits to the doctor for this and that. I go back in 2 weeks for another checkup. I really like my doctor because he is being careful and making sure things are on track. All glory definately goes to God! When we found out we were pregnant....we were in the middle of 'infertility' testing with both of us...after a 2 year waiting game. He definately spared us from much more stress, wait, heartache, and financial strain. The news also couldn't have come at a better time with all of the 'bad' news with Forrest's job drama. It was a week later that we found out we were pregnant...and all of that other 'mess' just seems to pale in comparison huh?
We appreicate your prayers each day for this little one. After the miscarriage in '05...we definately take one day at a time and consider each of them a triumph. We have learned how fragile life really is, and I just wish more people did too and wouldn't take it so for granted. Life just doesn't happen...GOD chooses to CREATE it from nothing...and to SUSTAIN it each day...whether inside or outside of the womb. He creates miracles. You and I are miracles! So go...and enjoy the life/ lives God chose to give you.
1 Samuel 1:27 For this child I prayed; and the Lord has granted me my petition which I made to him.
