57- Our Third Pregnancy

July 22, 1981- Our 3^rd anniversary

I had a positive pregnancy test yesterday. Thank You, Lord. Everyone is shaking their heads but I KNOW You are going to provide BOUNTIFULLY. Your character is above reproach. I trust You. In fact I am thrilled to be embarking on this new adventure with You. More good and wonderful things have happened in my pregnant months than in any other times in my life. I know Lord that Your attitude about babies is so tender and warm. Thank You for pouring out your grace and faith on me for this time. I love You.

I am looking for scriptures about retaining our OB/GYN or getting another one.

Regarding this pregnancy, I say to You, Jesus: Heb 2:12-13 I will proclaim Thy name, Jesus, to my brethren, in the midst of the congregation I will sing Thy praise. I will put my trust in Him. Behold, I and the children God has given me.

Note: Our first son was born when I was 33, and our fourth son when I was 39 years old.

Sledding down our driveway — Determined the boys would get a ride before the snow melted, Dan fashioned a makeshift sled out of a box, pulling it with a rope down our driveway.

Oh, I love Your Word! And I love reading in my journals that I went directly to the Bible to get my footing and my faith. God led us to put our family planning in His hands and ignored our weak efforts to exert some control. It was so God and so RIGHT!
