OK, the news is out: Michele and I are having another baby. (Whew! It's hard to keep something like that in...) Although we actually found out on the day before Mother's Day (ironic, huh?), we didn't share the news with the church family until this past Sunday, Father's Day. Wanting to wait until after the "official" doctor's visit, seeing the heartbeat, and telling our daughters the news...NOW I'm ready to let the whole world know! Praise the Lord!
In case you don't know our "story," Michele and I consider ourselves so blessed to be parents. After our first 2 daughters were born (2 1/2 years apart), we thought we wanted one more. (Maybe a son?) But what followed was 5 years of unexpected disappointment, as we struggled with infertility. Then during a season of prayer & fasting in early 2006, God spoke to my heart that we were going to have another child. (Long story...much too long for this blog, but still really cool!) Sure enough, in October of that year, Mackenzie Faith was born.
And now...she will have a little "something" of her own (brother or sister yet to be determined, or maybe I should say yet to be revealed, since actually the baby's gender is obviously already determined, well, you know what I mean...). At any rate, our new baby will arrive around Christmas time. Thanks to all of you who have been praying for us, and thank you for sharing our joy at this exciting news. Isn't God awesome?!
