In February of 2008, Susanne told me that she was pregnant. We couldn't contain our excitement. Even though all we had was a positive on a home pregnancy test...we just had to tell everyone. So many people had been praying for us and we wanted them to share in our joy. Grandparents, and even great- grandparents, were moved to tears when we told them the great news. Other family and friends at work were thrilled -- after almost 6 years of infertility we were pregnant. We started making plans and thinking of names....would it be a boy or a girl????
Susanne's parents gave us a gift -- the Willow Tree sculpture that is pictured here. It was a time of great joy and excitement.
Come now you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit" - yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little while then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that."
James 4: 13 - 15
