Well, it is Super Bowl Sunday. I am watching a little HGTV and trying to relax. While I won't post this blog entry for awhile I wanted to blog so I didn't forget how I feel today. All weekend I had started to suspicion that I might be pregnant. I wasn't super late I just had a "feeling." I felt car sick on the way to our weekend retreat, I cried in church, I have felt tired. Nothing big. Honestly I thought I might just be convincing myself since I am SO familiar with pregnancy symptoms. But the inner debate was starting to consume my thoughts. So when I came home from church I took a left over pregnancy test from when I redid the test with Faith several times. :) And it confirmed that I am pregnant! Even though I've done this before I had to break out my pregnancy book to try and calculate my due date. I looks like Baby #3 will arrive right around Faith's 2nd birthday. The book calculates my due date as October 7th.
Now I am dying to tell someone. But I am not going to tell Jeremy right now since he is at the church preparing for our youth Super Bowl party. Tomorrow is his birthday so I am going to make him a card. I took a picture of me with the positive test since he isn't here to see it in person. I know he will think it is a wonderful birthday present. Kind of ironic to me since I first seriously suspicioned my pregnancy with Grace on Father's day.
I am excited and nervous all at the same time. So many moms have been telling me how hard the transition from two to three is. But, I find comfort in knowing how many people said two so close together would be a challenge and I have survived! I am thankful God has blessed us with another member to our family. A baby is the most incredible blessing.
Baby,
I already love you. I am praying God will protect you as he knits you together. Already you have a family who loves you and will eagerly anticipate your birth. You are loved. I pray even now God will plant the beginnings of a heart that longs to know Him.
Your Mama
