6 December 2008- We had intentions of posting a completely positive blog today about various blessings of the last few days. Unfortunately before that could had happen, Kel started today with a little scare. The fluid which has been leaking for the last few weeks had turned colors overnight which we had been told to look out for as a possible sign of infection. As you can imagine everyone's heart began to race as I literally raced home from KC (drill weekend). A quick trip to the hospital amounted to more tests and ultrasounds only to show that Baby B is still fighting and no infection was detected. This was one last blessing to finish off a week full of them. So now back to the beginning. To make a long story short, Kel and I experienced 4 or 5 very unexpected blessings this week ranging anywhere from finances to friends to flu shots. It would take forever to explain that last sentence but know that while some had little or nothing to do with the pregnancy, all showed how God is in the small stuff and taking care of everything. The timing of these blessings have shown Kel and I that while Baby B's journey is far from over, we're not in it alone. Keep praying and be confident that they are being heard.

God continues to amaze me . . . we've had so many times that he has made it clear that he is right there with us. Baby B is going to be such a strong woman, just like her Mom. Jeff, you're going to have two awesome woman to live with. It's been an unbelievable week filled with blessings. God gives us one, then another, and another.

Jeff, you should know that your girls did not want you to go out of town, and what girls want they typically get (one way or another). Your little girl is just showing her independence early! We too are amazed by the blessings of the week and know that God's hand has been in them. We are learning even more about the power of prayer!

i've realized this week that although "hard" can not come close to describing how the past month has been, without these things happening we wouldn't be learning first hand about the Lord's faithfulness and power. jeff is right, we are not in this alone. we have the Lord on our side, and there isn't anything better than that! :) i can't wait to be with you!
