We’re Pregnant!
Wayne and I are 21 weeks pregnant with our precious little boy. Due August 7th.
Yes…. can you believe it? We hardly can, but it’s wonderful and amazing all at the same time!
He is our rainbow baby.
I was pregnant with our first little one this time last year and miscarried at 12 weeks. He was a boy.
I always imagined having a boy first and we are just thrilled.
I’ve dreamed about being a mother since I could hold a babydoll… I always felt it was in my bones.
Having a miscarriage wasn’t something I imagined for myself though… and though conceiving again came with surreal thankfulness… my first trimester left me feeling such conflicting feelings. It was truly a dark night of the soul :)… but after about 16 weeks and a getaway to Costa Rica… I feel like a new person. Pregnancy is no joke. But you all know that. I commend every woman out there whose done it (and those who haven't for that matter) and value her experience. What a beautiful and wild ride.
As I’m a little over halfway now.. I still wonder if I’m ready for this life-altering transition.
I dream of holding my baby in my arms…
I dream of the precious bond I will feel with him.. and I look forward to going through all the phases of life with him.
I ask for the Lord’s help. I know how flawed I am.
Something that encourages me… a line I jotted down from a Mother’s Day message I heard several years ago - “The greatest thing a Mother can teach her children is, “I am a great sinner, but Christ is a great Savior.” - Sam Schwenck
Thank you for celebrating with us.
We can’t wait to welcome this little miracle!
