Blessings...
its' been almost 2 years since I posted on my blog! I just completely forgot it! WOW!
But alot has happened in 2 years. We have a special blessing in the form of a little guy named Reno. he is so precious. He was definatly answered prayer. Now I have 3 kiddos..count them 1, 2, 3!! 3 kiddos..I can barely believe it myself most days. I still look at this little guy in disbelief. I KNOW what God has done for me, but it's so incredible at the same time. I think of Sarah when she wanted children, and how God gave her Issac in her old age. He promised her He would give her a son but she grew impatient and told her husband to sow his seed in another field because she couldnt' trust the Lord. I think we all are like Sarah in ways. Most of us are too impatient to trust God. Most of dont' believe we have heard from Him. Still too many of us just refuse to believe anything and want to do what we want to do anyway. I admit, I had gotten to the point where I was getting upset every month that I wasn't pregnant. BUT, that took me about 7 years to arrive at that point, and I always thought I had no patience LOL. I finally poured out my heart to the Lord in Jan of 2011, and begged Him to take away the desire if He was never going to give me another baby. I would be happy with that, but I didnt' want to live my life wanting something He was never going to allow me to have. It's a horrible feeling to have. Unlike Sarah, I wasn't about to do anything to make myself have a baby. I wasnt' going on drugs, I wasn't doing treatments. It was either God's will or it wasn't, and I would have to be Ok with that. I already had 2 beautiful children. If I had never had any, then maybe I would have considered treatments, but such was not the case.
So afte pouring out my heart, the Lord spoke to me and told me I would be pregnant in March and I would find out just before I went to Disney World. I was sooooooooo excited!! I had a time frame. I had been waiting for one. God has spoken to us and told us when to expect each our kiddos and finally, He had told me again!
So I waited and took a test 2 weeks before went to Disney and there it was ..2 lines!!
I cried like a baby. I was sooooooooooo excited!
We had an amazing wonderful pregnancy...and I had planned water birth at home. I will tell that story next time.
