Baby is growing big and strong and waving hello!! Measuring 11 weeks and 6 days and due last day of July/1st day of August. We didn’t expect to see baby today, but he/she gave us quite a scare last night.

Actually it turned out to be ME causing the scare. There was/is a pocket of blood beneath baby that caused lots of bleeding and resulted in my blood pressure dropping super low & my passing out twice over the last 12 hours!  Thankfully, my church family was quick with prayers and childcare for Nick to take me to the doctor, and we are hopeful that everything will be just fine! 🙏🏻

This verse was on my mind all night and morning long:
You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you. ~Isaiah 26:3

**Editted to add that Caroline Creel just informed me that the baby is due on Harry Potter’s bday. 😉 🧙🏻‍♂️

Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Chri...

My Happiness Project

As I sit here reading "The Happiness Project," I am so overwhelmed by just how much I needed this book. Have any of you read this book?! What did you think of it? Posted by Allison Valree Federico on  Tuesday, November 1, 2016 When I sat down to begin reading, I heard the kids playing upstairs...and I was worried about it.... "What is my son getting into now?" (It's always, always always something!) "Are they going to get hurt?" "What if a neighbor stops by and realizes that I'm letting my kids play without helicoptering them? What will she think?" But the truth of the matter is, she is almost 5 and he is 2, and really they can play alone for 10 minutes while I read, and (as long as they don't burn the house down), most messes will be cleanable.... But the point is, I started out with the wrong mindset to begin! Just 5 minutes into my reading, I already see that! My kids are LAUGHING. And having FUN tog...
