My hearts desire
Anyone that knows me, knows I want another kid. I've wanted more since Chris was born. I would have been excited to be pregnant at any point after he was born. Mike was done. We talked about it a lot but neither of us really willing to change our minds. I prayed every day (maybe not every day, but very often) for another child, for Mike and I to agree. After a year of getting nowhere I thought maybe we weren't supposed to have more kids, maybe I needed to change instead. So I started praying that God would take away my desire to have more kids, that if we were not supposed to have more, that I wouldn't want anymore. My desire never went away. It only got stronger. A few months ago we decided to try to put aside our own feelings about more kids and really try to listen to God and hear what he thinks about us having more kids or not. 5 days later I found out I'm pregnant. I cried with joy and thankfulness when the test turned positive. Mike was definitely shocked and still trying to figure out how we are going to handle three kids. I am so excited to have a 3rd. 3 has been the number in my head for a long time, even before we had 1. 2011 will bring my hearts desire and I am so thankful for it! Our little bean is due the end of August.
