Month 6, not so good news....

During month six of my pregnancy I was booked into the hospital with cramps and high blood pressure.... I prayed " God, Please let my little girl be fine", yes it was a little girl. I overheard Devon pray one evening asking God for a sister. With tears of joy streaming down my face, I confirmed that he is going to have a baby sister. My husband went to the Mighty Men Conference the year before and left a piece of paper in his Bible which I discovered during my pregnancy. It was a list of everything he thanked God for blessing him with, and of course at the end of the list he asked for a daughter. How wonderful is that, we received what we prayed for. With God's help we were fine and left the hospital feeling thankfull. Every day passing, Jodie grew bigger and stronger. She wasnt a big baby but she was normal and with every scan I fell more and more in love with her. She was beautiful, just what I asked for....

On the 30th of August 2008 I prayed and asked God for a baby, then God gave me Jodie......

On 15 September 2008 I very sneekily bought a pregnancy test.... My son Devon and hubby was in the kitchen when I walked in, I had the biggest smile ever. I waved the pregnancy test around jumping up and down, like a little girl just before christmas eve. My son didn't know what was going on and when I explained his eyes when star bright and he started laughing with joy. He has been waiting for a little friend for years, we even laughed because in his mind if you buy a pregnancy test then God gives you a baby, he said that we should've bought it a long time ago. We just about phoned the whole world with the good news. That night I prayed and thanked our Heavenly Father that he blessed us with a little baby. Every day that went by, the little one grew bigger and stronger, how wonderful it feels to have a little miracle grow inside my womb. I could hardly wait to buy baby goodies and counted the days from the one scan to the next.
