Sunday

So I just woke up from a nap... Seems like that is my favorite pass time pretty much every other day I am super tired!! It has been a long weekend, yesterday we went out to brunch with Daniel's mom's family. And then last night we went to the boat parade at the landing with our good friends and Daniel's siblings. I can't remember a time in a long time that I have been happy all day. Don't get me wrong I haven't been walking around angry 24/7 but we have suffered from tons of disappointments and I know some times I couldn't enjoy family time or especially time with friends that were pregnant. But yesterday was a new day we got to see our nephew several times and it was fun!! And Cat and I have finally gotten our wish and are both pregnant at the same time!! For those of you in our lives that have been on the other side of our walls that we have put up not because of you but because we have been hurting... Thank you so much for not giving up on us and for giving us the space that we need to heal and move on... This baby represents so many things for Daniel and I... We have longed for so long for this little miracle to come to pass in our life and I am truly thankful for our journey because we are stronger closer together and more in love with our Heavenly Father now than ever before. We have truly grasped how deep and how wide His love is!! As I stood in church today I had the honor of holding one of the new little babies in our church family and I was overwhelmed with the reality of all that God has done for us. Although it hasn't been easy we have held on to His promises as tight as we could and He has come through. Pastor Charlie announced the much awaited news to our church family and as he had us stand the whole place began to shout, cry, and clap. Daniel and I wouldn't have made it to this point without the prayers and love from our Bridge Family. Thank you to all of you who have known our situation and prayed and loved us all the way through it. And thank you to those of you who hadn't a clue but loved us through our bad day's and said words of encouragement even when you might not have known how much those were needed or what they meant. It is so incredible to have people surrounding us in our lives that have believed for this baby with us. So today for our Bridge Family we were able to remind them that God is for us and not against us! And that no matter what we are going to bring praise to Him because in all of our lives and in every season He is still God and we have a reason to sing and we have a reason to worship! Not only has God answered the cry of our heart He has also answered those around who at times would cry out louder than us when we couldn't do it anymore!! So to those people we say THANKS!!
Tomorrow I go to the dr. to have more blood work done just to make sure that my HCG levels are rising properly. Yea fun more blood work ;o) But honestly at this rate they can prick me where ever I don't care because I'M HAVING A BABY!!
