We have wanted a larger family for  a long time. I had given up hope of having another little one when we found out we were expecting.  After my health problems,  we know three is all we'll have now, and it is very, very good so far. I find myself alternately humming the Southern Gospel song "I Am Blessed" or the math song from ABC's Schoolhouse Rock "Three Is A Magic Number."

The schedule around here isn't as smooth as it was pre-infant, but we are enjoyng LIFE.  Watching our older two children with their new sibling is rewarding--they aren't jealous but have welcomed her. Her every smile becomes the topic of conversation for us and we all compete to see who will garner the most.

God--and the life He has blessed us with ---is good. Very good.

He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD.

Psalm113:9
