I've been thinking about this for a week or so. I realized that there are a lot of women on my friends list that are expecting babies. A lot, when you think of how really small my friends list, compared to the thousands of people on here. The following is a list of all the ones I know of ...

UPDATE - AS OF MARCH 4TH: I have learned that DandelionSeeds is due TOMORROW (3/5) and so needs prayer, like, right away! And I completely forgot to mention our pregnant guppy, Boney! She's due (maybe) next week but is doing fine so far.
Now, my friends list is at about 50 - that means that over 10% of my friends are expecting! I find that amazing! And I apologize if I've left someone out or if there are more out there that I'm unaware of. I think it's wonderful and I wanted to spotlight these moms-to-be because I wanted to encourage others to pray for them. I keep all six of these women in prayer because, my goodness, we all know what pregnancy is like and how difficult it must be at times to take care of everyone else AND homeschool. I encourage each of you moms to begin each day seeking the Lord for strength (you all probably do anyway and are a great encouragement to me!) Please continue to update us on your progress and let us know how we can better pray for you. Looking forward to all these new babies blessed to be in loving families!
Oh, by the way, tonight is my husband's first night back to work since his surgery after Christmas! Praise the Lord that he can finally get back to his normal routine. He really likes his job and I know he's missed the people he works with. I've been praying all evening for him. We'll see how he is tomorrow - he'll be doing things he hasn't done in awhile. May the Lord give him strength to get through his 12-hour shift! |
Mar. 2, 2008 - thanks for the prayers!
