• One year ago tonight I went to bed knowing that I would wake up and take a pregnancy test.  I had no idea how much different my life wouild be today.

  We had a miscarriage in August 2006.  Last year May 10th was a Saturday.  I went to a Mother/Daughter Breakfast with our church ladies.  By the time I got there EVERYONE knew I was pregnant.

  

  I’m pretty sure I was on prednisone at the time.  This is my first “pregnant” picture.  I was positively glowing.  God had planted little Lydia in my womb and I had to place all my trust in him.  I prayed every day of my pregnancy for the LORD to protect her, for her to be born healthy, for her not to have to suffer with Asthma.

  

  My Dad took this with his cell phone last night.  I totally have a burp cloth on my shoulder.  I love it!

  She will be four months old on Wednesday and we are headed to NY/NJ/PA for a visit on Thursday LORD willing.  We can’t wait to introduce our blessing to her Nana (Fred’s Mom) Her Cousins, Aunts and many friends.

  My Mom and Dad came into town yesterday and are here through Monday.  I am so excited to be spending Mother’s day AS a Mommy, and WITH my Mommy.

  God is so good to me.
