Things always seem to happen when you least expect it. I found out on New Year's Day that I'm expecting (after 2 negative tests on Dec. 17 and 25!). According to my rough calculations, I'm 9 1/2 weeks, due Aug. 25th. There's quite a story to it all, and since I'm without a computer at home to write at my leisure, the whole story will have to wait:)
My God is faithful. He will finish the good work He's started in Conrad and in me.
I am excited to be on this wonderful journey, and humbly realize that there are many out there that are still waiting patiently--with many tears and prayers--for their miracle. God, thank you for your plan.

Better Late Than Never!
Merry Christmas and HAPPY NEW YEAR! It's hard to know what 2012 might hold, but I am eagerly looking forward to what God has.
This last sabbatical from the blog world has been longer than my usual disappearances... but this time I actually have good reason for it. On December 8th, we had what some might label a "tragedy" occur when our house almost burned down. Because of God's mercy, Conrad arrived home 5-10 minutes before it completely burned to the ground and put the fire out. However, our whole main floor is smoke-damaged, and, at this time, gutted. This could be it's own post (if I get around to it)...but, mostly I'm just explaining that I don't have constant internet access like I'm used too. Life is just so rough!:)
Anyway, just wanted to let you all know I'm still alive. That is, if anyone checks on my 6x/year blog posts... I seriously want to be better about it! So far, I've blogged for half of the days of 2012. So far, so good.
