Josh's "News"


In the beginning of July we had been talking to Josh about wanting to have a baby and had prayed with him about it several times. This was the conversation we had as I was putting him to bed one night.

Josh: "I want to pray for a baby right now!"

Me: "Ok, that's fine, go ahead"

Josh: "Heavenly Father...we really want to have a baby...in the name..."

Josh: "He said Yes!"

I laughed and thought how adorable my little boy is. Well he was right. I got pregnant about 6 weeks later. Oh the faith of a child!

Thank you to all who added your fasting and prayers to ours. The Lord heard us. I'm due in May.

Oh you guys!! That's so exciting! You inspire us all. I know that the Lord has a reason for all. He is all knowing and I only hope to one day understand it all! This baby has been waiting as anxiously as you have to come into a loving family where the gospel will be taught and where he can grow up with two parents who love eachother and it. Oh congratulations again guys! We love you!
