A New Chapter

Spring is finally coming to upstate New York. Outside my kitchen window tulips and daffodils are growing larger and greener despite the snow we had last week (one has even blossomed). The maple trees are crimson with tiny blossoms that are now falling across the driveway. And the delightful call of geese flying overhead fills me with joy.


With so many signs of new life around me, I find myself contemplating more and more another new life. A dear little baby that I am so excited to meet this September. Now that I am almost 19 weeks along, I am thrilled to feel the little baby kicking within me. Each time I visit JoAnn Fabrics I am inevitably drawn to the baby yarns, wondering if I should purchase a skein of pink or blue yarn. : ) I am working with some cream yarn for now.


Adam and I are so excited and blessed to begin this new chapter of life. We pray that the LORD will guide and direct us.

  8. Congratulations, dear friend! How exciting and what an incredible blessing to be welcoming your first precious little one soon! I had I noticed that you have been pinning baby things quite often, so it is so neat to have wondered about that and then read this now :) I can't imagine how excited you and your husband must be. Sending prayers for a blessed pregnancy!

    Springtime sounds so lovely where you are. You describe every part of it with such beauty and it sounds like a time of delight from the Lord.

    Again, Congratulations on your sweet news♥
