Learning to enjoy the detours...the blog formerly known as froG academy

Friday, July 20, 2007 - I'm expecting...the unexpected

That pretty much sums it up. 

Out of the smoke and ashes of near divorce comes the news that God is blessing us with another child in February...possibly March given my history.

When we first found out, I spent weeks questioning God's timing...we were trying for another baby up until the falling out and God said "no" month after month after month, and then when I begged God for a way out this is how He answers?!

Then there was a scare...I wasn't having morning sickness.  I ALWAYS have morning sickness unless something is wrong.  I began to repent for my attitude and beg God to let this tiny life make it.  He answered and I have been about as sick as sick gets for the last month.

We are praying and hoping for a home birth this time rather than a repeat c-section.

We won't be finding out the gender this time.  Of course we long for another son for the sake of James, but I dreamed last month of having another daughter and naming her Paisley.

We'll see in about  30 weeks.

Other than that, George and I are on the mend and we are beginning our fourth year of homeschooling.

I'll try to check in more often with pregnancy updates and such.

Have a blessed day!

God is so wise. Far better for the relationship to be on the mend than to bring another life into it before hand. So now as your love can rebuild for each other, you aren't simply staying together 'for the sake of the baby' which happens so often. I will pray that God will continue to strengthen you both. Stop by my site and enter the draw for a free book too if you'd like. Blessings.

Congratulations!
God's timing is perfect, unlike ours. He has a perfect will.
May God bless your pregnancy, and marriage, beyond your wildest dreams.

Can't wait to hear how things are going... Keep in touch.

Blessings, Beckie :o)
