I wanted so badly to receive an answer yesterday......
This morning when I went out to run errands, I didn't drive by because I'm trying to focus on the new baby now, but it was hard not to. I want to focus so badly on her because she needs me. I'm trying not to think about how awful it would be if for six months of my pregnancy I kept thinking about her being pregnant with my husband's child.

I know that God will take care of us. I know that God is in control. I know that He has a plan. It's so hard not knowing what His plan is, though.

Dear Lord,
we are so grateful for this tiny miracle. We know every life is a miracle, but this one is particularly one. We realize that this is an opportunity to bring new life into our marriage. It's an opportunity to enrich our lives and our son's. We also are humbled that you entrust us with this responsibility, trusting that we can do better. Please help us keep stress out of our lives. Please, for little Therese's sake, keep her Mommy happy and at peace. We ask, if it be your will, to give us an answer about the other soon.

One thing that God is obviously trying to teach us in all this is patience. It is hard, though, because we have generally gotten what we wanted.
