When you wish for a Mustang,
donate baby clothes,
plan a cruise to Alaska,
what do you suppose?
God gives you a sign,
for you and your wife
at the end of a chapter
(you thought) of your life
Where once you expected
a minus, a dot
you see a small 'plus' sign,
'Not Pregnant' less 'Not'
Instead of the end
to a chapter of life
God adds to the blessings
for you and your wife.

It sounds like bad poetry because it IS bad poetry. But is is also true. God has blessed us again; this is the 16th pregnancy for Carolyn. We are still amazed that God has smiled on us and granted us this blessing. We thank God for this child - whether he or she lives for a few weeks in utero, fifteen years, or long enough to bury us - we cannot stop thanking God for this tremendous blessing!
Please pray for Carolyn and our unborn child.
ADDENDUM: Sadly, Carolyn suffered a miscarriage shortly after I posted this entry. I have another note regarding this at THIS site.
