A New Season

We have entered a new season. A season of hope, of new life, of expecting.


With thankful hearts, we wait with joyful anticipation for the coming of a new little one in December! What sheer joy and excitement! What terrible nausea and debilitating exhaustion! A perfect example of the sovereignty of God! It is with deep gratitude to our Maker, who opens and closes the womb, and who remembered us, that we wait. We pray. And we give thanks for this sweet new season of life!
