Me and my little inutero companion :)

Yesterday was a difficult day. Moving from place to place is overwhelming to me. Remember my ant hills to mountains post. Something small can look, feel and to me, become huge, overwhelming, suffocating. Being by myself, unsocial and withdrawn is the most comfirtable place for me. It's not overwhelming. It's quiet, I can easily pass the time with little movement or thought. It's strange for me, who is an extrovert, a social butterfly. I love people, I love talking and visiting different places. But the reality is I'm not the same person I was 7 months ago. I'm transforming, surviving from day to day. 5 weeks until admission. I know The Lord will make me whole and beautiful inside and out for His will. 
I bought the littles a slide and an activity table yesterday. A fun distraction that warmed my heart and put a smile on my face. I rested well last night knowing my babies played themselves sleepy :)



Thank you to another sweet friend who brought dinner for my family. Who gave a beautiful card to my mom. Thank you for speaking straight to my heart. For putting smiles on my family's face. For loving us with a God-given grace. You have blessed us :)

Ant hills to mountains

First I have to share the love and support from all over. Especially to Hope for Accreta Foundation, Gina. She sent me this. Such a beautiful surprise to see the signatures of survivors from all over the world. Very humbling. Probably the biggest and most humbling gifts I've received thus far are cards with words of encouragement. I've received birthday cards, etc but these cards are different...or maybe my perspective is changing.  This past week I don't look at my children the same. When I hold my youngest, I inhale his sweet, sticky and sometimes unidentifiable (depends what substance he's sporting) smell. I look at my two youngest and truly look into their deep blue eyes, trying to count the various shades of blue. I watch their movements. I stare in wonder how my 3 yr old knows almost all the words to Frozen, complete with hand gestures and facial expressions. How observant she is...what has she observed from me over the 3 short years of her beautiful life? W...

28wks: appt in Houston

Waiting for my ultrasound. Nervous but prayers are abundant. I am thankful. Here's a couple from 2 women I've never met nor do I know their names: "God's hand is on her womb, her team and on EVERYTHING that will touch her...physically and emotionally. To Him be the glory!!!" "Phew. I just read her blog. Oh,Father, bless this mama. Give her strength and endurance. Help her feel Your presence and peace. Make the time sweet yet swift so she can be back to snuggle all her little guys and their new little love. Help her and her husband fall even more deeply in love and for them to be strengthened by this experience. Protect her baby, Father, with lungs developed and fully functioning systems at birth. Growing this little one outside the womb as well, strong and healthy. (Through fierce tears) I pray you give her courage. In Jesus name,Amen." Thank you so much for everyone who is thinking about, praying for us and sending us messages and text m...
