That is the due date of Baby #5!!

Yesterday's ultrasound went really well. Funny, I actually kept having feelings/intuitions that maybe I was carrying twins. Don't know why because twins don't really run in my family, but it was like everywhere I went, there was mention of twins. Right before the ultrasound tech started yesterday, she said, "I think it's twin boys." And as soon as she started the ultrasound, two sacs appeared on the screen. I said, "It IS twins!" But after further examination, we saw that one sac had a baby with a heartbeat, and one did not. It could be that my body just made two sacs, or that it started out as a twin pregnancy (which is my belief.) I firmly believe it was a twin pregnancy. Oddly enough though, I am at perfect peace with it. Psalms says that God fashions each person's heart individually. When I saw Baby's heart beating on the screen, I knew that God was in control and no matter what was the deal with the other sac, God had it covered. He knows all the details and He has already fashioned Baby's heart perfectly.

We go back Dec 1 for another ultrasound to see how the other sac is doing. I mean I know that with God all things are possible, so it could be that a)another baby will have grown into that sac in three weeks and I am in fact carrying twins; b)the other sac gets absorbed into my body and was just a "fluke" thing (although with God I know there are no "fluke" things!)Either way, I know that God is in charge. We've been studying Hebrews on Wednesday nights with Bro. Greg. Last night we studied Hebrews 2:10, which calls God "The Captain of our Salvation". I know God is the Author and Captain of my salvation and He holds it all in His hands. I'm believing God!

Either way I am blessed beyond measure. Praise the Lord for a healthy baby in my womb!

Poetry, so much better than TV

I wanted to post up that poetry is very awesome! It reeeaally inspires me. Here are a few poems for you!   
                             
To the king of England:
violets are red,
roses are pink,
too many stamps,
too much ink!        


To children who love playing:
Just like horses like to run,
I like to splash in the sun.
Just like monkeys like to swing,
I like to do the same thing.
Just like cars like to drive,
In the pool I like to dive.
Just like NaNa loves to make cards,
I'm a pro at baking bars.
Just like servants have to work,
I'll do some digging in the dirt.
