Yeah, you read that right. In all the insanity that was our Christmas we discovered that we got a Christmas gift from God this year...we're expecting! I was a bit in disbelief but so excited at the same time!!
The insanity began the week before Christmas. We didn't have ANY Christmas preparations done this year and we weren't even done shopping for the kids let alone friend and family. The idea of home made Christmas gifts went out the window and we took a deep breath and started shopping. By the evening of the 22rd we had finally finished our shopping (thank GOD my husband took the week off!) and the wrap-a-polooza began! I was EXHAUSTED! That morning (December 23rd) around 2am Sassy had an accident in her bed. After cleaning things up my husband went back to bed, but I couldn't sleep. I had planned to take a test that morning anyway so I decided I might as well just take it. So at 2:30 am I discovered that we were going to grow our family even more!
That night I came across this verse:
"Children are a gift from the LORD; they are a reward from him."
Psalm 127:3
I don't feel very worthy but the same time so thankful the Lord chose to reward us with the miracle of life. We are feeling truly blessed and this verse just warms my heart, reminding me how precious this gift truly is. We are so thankful that God chose to give us this gift!
How exciting!!! Congrats!!
