Appointment Update

We went to the doctor yesterday and everything is going well! I have only gained 1 lb. so far and the baby's heartbeat is good! That's it. Next visit, we find out what we are having, yay!

Prayer Request

I was informed today that our company policy has changed due to the economy. I will not be getting paid maternity leave now, I normally would get 6 weeks paid. This is going to be hard for us but we will make it because God is our Provider! I am grateful and blessed to even have a job because I know so many people have become jobless, our company has already let some go. I am blessed to even be getting time off (6 weeks) because under the Family Medical Leave Act, a company that has less than 50 employees is not required to do ANYTHING for you. Got to love this United States of America that we live in sometimes! If I could, I would pack up and move to Canada with my Mom, you get at least a year off with your new baby AND part-time pay! Wow! What a deal! You would think that America would be on the top of the list for providing for Maternity Leave and things of that nature.

Giving God Glory!

I just want to take a moment and thank God once again and give him the Glory for this pregnancy! I was told 2 years ago that I was not ovulating and that I would need "help" i.e. fertility drugs to get pregnant. Well, I refused to believe that! I knew that God would heal me and bless us with a child in His time if it was His will. I even had a miscarriage last February but I did not back down and continued to have Faith that God would bless us with a child someday in His time! God is so good!

My Valentine's Surprise

I received these Friday morning at work! It just made my day! They are so bright and cheerful. I had to take a pic of every angle so you could see them all. They are even prettier now, some of the Lilies had yet to bloom but they did over the weekend. I will take another pic tonight!
