New Beginnings

Last night, Wade threatened that if I didn't blog soon he would... So here goes... I'm pregnant! We weren't certain if we were going to tell people right away. But church yeterday was about laying down your burdens. We decided that God was going to keep me and this baby safe and we are going to take a step of faith and tell people. And, if something does happen, it wouldn't make it any easier if no one knew. I am due the beginning of October, which if you have read this blog, is the time when Mishael died. We did not know for 2 weeks. God wants to restore October to us, and it will still hurt on October 15th and 16th but October is not going to have to just be a month we will dread every year, it is going to be a celebration of new life. I know most of you who read this are Christians, so if you would, please pray for the safety of this baby and for mine and my families peace. Thank you!

Oh Chrissy! We are so thrilled for your family. We were pretty much shell-shocked when we had heard you had lost your son... God knows what it's like to lose a son. He also knows what it's like to raise one from the dead. Lean on Him when it's hard. Lean on Him when it's glorious! I pray that God will use this experience for great and marvelous things. We love you!
