Encouraged

The past couple weeks have been tough. Being in ministry is no easy task. Anytime you deal with people, it can get difficult. There have just been some things that have been happening the past couple of weeks that has left my heart heavy and discouraged. John had a meeting tonight and after I put Graham to bed, I just got out my Bible and turned on some worship music and just went before the Lord. I was so comforted to read encouraging verses in the Bible and just hear the sweet words of encouraging, uplifting worship music. The Lord comforted me tonight and I feel so loved and so encouraged by him. It was such a great time of encouragement for me and exactly what I needed.

coming in July, 2011

We finally announced to the world that we are expecting baby #2!!! Graham is going to be a big brother! We are super excited to expand our little family and thank God for allowing us to have another little one.
I am almost 14 weeks along now! It's crazy that I am already out of the first trimester. I felt pretty sick (much more this time around) and extremely exhausted these past few months. The exhaustion could also be due to my thyroid. My doctor called me last week and stated that my thyroid levels were off and that I have hypothyroid. He put me on medicine which he says will help with my exhaustion. I AM HOPING!!!! I am due July 20, 2011---right smack dab in the middle of summer. John and I are so excited:).



It's been a cold, snowy January and Graham is not a big fan of staying indoors. He misses our walks, playing outside and feeding the ducks. We are definitely looking forward to spring :). Graham is 15 months old and the best little guy ever!! I LOVE this age! He is so much fun and interactive. We have alot of fun playing together and he is starting to say more words. He makes me smile so many times through out the day. He truly is our blessing upon blessing!!
