Still Waiting......

My calendar is clear and I, like the rest of my family, am waiting for the birth of our first grandchild. It's like she's playing Hide & Seek with us. We are all so anxious to meet her. She knows our touch (We've all had our hands on Mommy's tummy!) and our voices (yes, we talk to her too), but we are ready for a personal introduction. I know God is watching over her and growing her daily and He knows her actual "birthday". It's the anticipation of knowing it's going to happen....we just don't know when.

The waiting has been filled with some wonderful times though. I called Tif before I went on quilt guild retreat because I suddenly realized she might not be pregnant the next time I saw her. I had to see her pregnant one more time. She is so cute! My other daughter Hannah is home for Spring Break from college and we have had some wonderful times together at Jazzercise, Bible Study, lunches out just to spend time together and talk and she even joined me for my quilt group meeting and helped us stretch quilts. I am so thankful for these times together. Both my girls have grown into amazing, Christ-centered women. Thank you Lord for my girls!

Lest he fill left out, I have a wonderful son too. He is quiet, yet very caring. I can't wait to see him holding his niece. Thank you Lord for him too!

We are all trying not to become impatient with each other. We are all anticipating how this little girl is going to change our lives. She is going to be so loved. Actually, she already is very loved. Thank you Lord for the miracle of birth. Until that day......we will try to patiently wait!
