Labor Day Weekend

Today, Keal and I had the day off. After a busy weekend of cleaning, working on the patio, and spending time with both families, it was nice to have a day to ourselves.

September has been dedicated to praying as a couple for you, our miracle. And I love how committed Keal is to this - reminding me each night as we get into bed that we need to pray. Today, before leaving breakfast at my parents, we were both anointed.

I felt such a peace afterwards. In the past, my prayers and reasoning has all been selfish. I now pray with a new hope and purpose...Keal's soul salvation. I know that if we were to get you through the help of doctors, Keal would still thank God. But I also know deep down he'd be able to say it was because of doctors we got you. So, I am dedicated to praying and moving God's hand so that when we get you our miracle there is no doubt - we will say it was only because of God that you are in our life! And in return, Keal would know without any doubt, how real is God. That he would know how powerful prayer is. And that he would know that God is still the same today, working miracles in our lives.

We spent the afternoon working on the patio together. And as we did I found myself staring at our backyard, amazed at how much time has gone into this house. I listened to the peaceful flow of the fountain. And as I took in our yard I became so excited thinking that this is the place that you will grow up. I was looking at the beauty that our yard alone has to offer you. I envisioned summer strolls out to the garden to pick veggies for dinner. I saw you running through the yard playing soccer or hitting a baseball. I swear I could even hear your precious giggle filling our yard.

I know I've said this before, but there is so much joy waiting for you in this life. There are so many people waiting to love you. And I cannot wait until I welcome you to this world and share that love with you. You are already so loved!
