SO GRATEFUL AND SO BLESSED:)

HERE ARE 3 OF MY DEAR FRIENDS...
THEY ARE THE LADIES IN OUR COUPLES SMALL GROUP...
LADIES WHO HAVE
CRIED TEARS OF SORROW WITH ME...
CRIED TEARS OF PURE HYSTERICAL LAUGHTER WITH ME...
TAKEN CARE OF ME IN THE HOSPITAL...
TAKEN CARE OF MY FAMILY WHILE I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL...

SOME OF THE LADIES WHO HAVE BEEN THERE IN THE THICK AND THE THIN OF THE LAST 2+ YEARS WITH ME...

I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR THEIR LOVE, SUPPORT AND FRIENDSHIP:)
TODAY WE GOT TO WELCOME TRICIA'S SWEET LITTLE JACKSON INTO THIS WORLD...
I AM SO THANKFUL THAT HE ARRIVED SAFELY... PRAISE GOD!



NOT THE GREATEST PICTURE... BUT LEVI AND JACKSON'S FIRST PICTURE TOGETHER:)



IT HAS BEEN A JOY TO BE PREGNANT AT THE SAME TIME AS TRICIA:) SHE IS ONE OF THE MOST GENEROUS, FUNNIEST, BRUTALLY HONEST GIRLS I KNOW... I REALLY LOVE THAT ABOUT HER:)



IT IS KIND OF FUNNY... TRICIA AND I ARE ALMOST THE SAME AGE.. AND QUITE HONESTLY THERE ARE TIMES I HAVE FELT LIKE SARAH IN THE BIBLE, HAVING A BABY IN MY OLDER AGE. :)



I KNOW THAT I AM NOT OLD AT ALL, AND REALLY DON'T FEEL IT AT ALL. BUT WHEN I WAS AT THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE, I COULDN'T BELIEVE HOW YOUNG THE OTHER PREGNANT GALS LOOKED:)



IN REALITY, MOSTLY THEY WEREN'T THAT YOUNG... PROBABLY ABOUT THE SAME AGE I WAS WHEN I HAD MY FIRST LOUIS...



HONESTLY THOUGH, WE WAITED LONG AND HARD FOR GOD TO GIVE US LOUIS, AND BOY DID I TREASURED MY PREGNANCY AND MY TIMES WITH HIM AS A BABY...



BUT OHHHH THE SWEETNESS OF HAVING LEVI HERE... IT IS JUST INCREDIBLE AND SUCH A PRECIOUS BLESSING FROM GOD! I FEEL LIKE I HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE SWEETEST PRESENT EVER!!



I WILL TRY TO POST PICTURES FROM MOTHER'S DAY SOON...

I think some people have to know when to stop having children especially replacement babies. Just because you lose a child does not mean you need to replace that child. How will that child ever know if they are loved for who they are or for the fact that you needed a replacement.

I just discovered your blog. We knew each other just briefly at the Sem. God has such wonderful and beautiful plans for your family. Any child He places in your family(for any period of time), is Blessed!! Congratulations on his newest gift!
