Children are a blessing!

Whatever stresses children cause us they always make up for it in other ways. I love the moments when I have a better perspective and can enjoy the little moments.


I had my 20 week ultrasound this week which is always an exciting event. Earlier in the week before we went in David wanted to know if it was a boy or girl and declared that he wanted a boy (of course). I said that we didn't get to pick, that Heavenly Father chooses for us and he'd have to take it up with Him. A couple of days later we had the ultrasound and decided to leave it a surprise. Today we were riding in the car and David asked again if the baby was a boy or a girl. I said I don't know, we'll just have to wait and see. Then David said, "I thought you said Heavenly Father chooses, oh yeah! I think we should pray about it." Right then and there he began by saying, "Heavenly Father, thank Thee for the baby, please give us a baby brother."

What simple faith! How could you not love these little ones? We will all be happy with whatever Heavenly Father decides to send us.

I hope David won't be too sad if it is a girl :) Because Anya thinks the baby is a girl.
