Gabriel James arrived early on Easter Sunday. He spent 4 weeks in the NICU and is now home with us growing like a weed. His sister is very proud of him and LOVES him dearly!

Welcome to our Coop lil man!

So much has happened since my last post. Michael resigned his position at the church we were in at the end of July and we moved in September.  He is now pastoring a church in Hamburg. I found out in August that we are expecting another precious blessing from God, and we are so excited!  We were not trying to have more children but just praying that God's will would be done in our lives.   This pregnancy has its risks and we are still waiting and praying that God will have His perfect way in our lives.  I saw a verse earlier that gave me a peace while waiting. It was Jer. 1:5. It says, "Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you..." What a peace I can take knowing that God knows this baby already. He knew him before I ever even thought I was pregnant. He knew him before I was even born. God has a plan in everything and I am going to hold onto the fact that He knows every detail of not just this baby's life, but mine too. What an awesome God!

Vg is very excited. She had been praying that God would give her a baby brother or sister. Amazing how God answers the prayers of even small children. She went shopping for baby today and got a couple little things. I can't wait to set up the nursery. She will be a great help.  She has adjusted pretty good to the move. I was worried about her and I can see where it has impacted her, but she is doing really well.

I have been sick with this pregnancy. I have been exhausted most of the time. Moody has been a very timid way to put my mental state. I am praying that things calm down soon and I can enjoy the rest of this pregnancy.

Please keep us in your prayers.
