Many of you have heard, and if not, then you will hear now:
Jacob and I are expecting a baby in April 2010!
We are GREATLY excited.
I fight a little morning sickness just about everyday and purely exhausted 99.9% of the time. Other than that, I'm feeling fine!
We're about 7 weeks along; we've heard the heartbeat, and baby sounds healthy!!
I have been spending a lot of time wondering what kind of parents we will be...
Will I be stressed, like my mom? Or distant, guilt-ridden like my dad?
I know that Jacob will be a good dad. I'm not worried about him at all. But I do wonder if we will meet the needs of our children. How do we instill the Word of God in this being without pushing him or her away from Father God? Will we give each child the right amount of attention to avoid "middle-child-syndrome"?
Lord, You are good. I submit myself to You, asking You to shape me into the woman of God You desire for me to be... Help me to be the mother You desire for my children to see. Shape my character so that You are all they see. Show me Your ways.
