Well it has definitely been entirely too long since I last posted on this blog, but I just read my husband's newly created blog and it gave me the inspiration to explore a bit of my own thoughts. So I hope you're ready for that....
I will be 27 weeks pregnant this Thursday, which means that I am entering my third trimester - the most exhausting period of my life so far! I haven't been nauseous in quite a while though, which is a great advantage. And my husband has been AMAZING. I am constantly apologizing to him and asking if it's ok that I wake up, go to work, and then come home and do nothing while he makes dinner and cleans and rubs my feet every night! He does these things happily...which absolutely baffles me. I'd like to say I'm exaggerating on this point, but sadly I think I can count the times that I've cooked in the past month on one hand.. :( PRAISE GOD for this wonderful man that I get to call my husband. PRAISE GOD that he loves me with the love of Christ... and not only that but by his devotion also daily pushes me to love Christ more and walk more closely with Him.
Baby Joshua is growing quite nicely, and very sweetly. We have gotten the joy of reading stories to him (mostly Dr. Suess and the bible) and singing to him. I read that his ears are well developed and very sensitive to the noises we make now... so we talk and sing to him every chance we get. It really is the coolest blessing ever to get to carry a child around in my tummy everywhere I go... to know that God created this sweet little boy and given him to us as a gift that we get to be responsible for and watch him grow and learn and love. Our prayers have already started for his salvation and the salvation and love of his future wife - so exciting to see the kind of man that he will grow up to be. Thank you Lord for this privilege! Thank you Lord for this answered prayer! Thank you Lord for allowing me to experience this most precious gift.
