So Blessed

If you haven't seen on Jessa's blog or Facebook...Jessa and Levi are having a boy. Our family was so excited as we were at the ultra-sound and saw first hand (no doubt whatsoever)that we are getting a GRANDSON. We have ourselves a beautiful grand-daughter that we love dearly and now will get that boy that we have not got to have around. I've had so much fun buying boy clothes and more fun will come when we get to buy the fire trucks, ambulances, police cars;anything that's for a boy that makes noise ~ smile.

This whole week I have been thanking God for blessing us so abundantly. I am so thankful that God has allowed our girls to be here in Alaska with us. And that Levi didn't move Jessa away from us. I know I would've found a way to be with them during this time, but I can't thank Him, or praise Him enough for giving me this desire of my heart. To be near my girls, thus far, as they bring these babies into world. Levi, though you weren't thinking of me, I'm sure when you made that decision (wink)but I truly thank you for it. I am so anxious to watch you and my daughter see another one of your dreams come true as you become parents. Just don't forget to share Noah Allan with us.

There have been things that I never expected would happen in my family but God has given us a miracle. We continue to wait, pray and try to be an example as He brings a new life to Him in Dallas.

I thank God for ALL things and I know He has greater things on the horizon.

What! I played with fire trucks and army men when I was a little girl! They rescued by barbies. Ha!

Congrats!
