Joy!!!

I attended Jen's ultrasound this week. Amazing little 4" angel turning flips and kicking - putting on a show!!! 99% certainty we're having a grandaughter! Long feet and long legs like her dad! Due date changed to July 11th. Gramma's is July 12th! What a birthday present! Can't wait to start shopping! Confession: already bought two dresses and I've learned Tyler bought a 5-12 month sized red pea coat - just like mom's!! We are very excited about it. Unexpectedly, God, in His own timing, has given us a blessing from the trials of, what I called, their rebellious stage of marriage this past year, and I'm thrilled about it and walk in grace and trust Him to work it all out for good and bless them as they start their family. Who out there had a perfect marriage, especially the first few years? Who waited til all was in place and perfect before beginning families? Not I. We all have cobwebs in our closets and pains in our past. Focusing on the joy!
