Other than some cramps (extreme at times) usually in the evenings, I have felt great. It is still very early, but still not extremely tired and haven't been nauseous...two of the things that I was dreading the most.
This has been a hard couple days on me. I had an interview yesterday and it didn't turn out like I would have liked it to. It sounds like they think it would be a good fit for them, but I am just not convinced that working every Saturday is what I want to be doing. I'm doing the only thing that I can - continue to pray, and trust that God knows what he is doing with all of these financial circumstances that are overwhelming me this week. These verses has been heavy on my heart, especially this week:
"Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
So do not worry, saying, `What shall we eat?' or `What shall we drink?' or `What shall we wear?' For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."
Matthew 6:26-31
We can't wait until we get to start telling our families and friends. Your Daddy came home from work yesterday and sat down on the couch where I was studying and I looked up at him and I could tell he had something on his mind. I asked what he was thinking, and he said "I just want to tell someone!" Pretty cute if you ask me (and I agree!!). On that same note, the morning we found out we were expecting, I was getting ready for work and he was laying in bed and I looked at him and asked him what he was thinking about, and he said "Names." That wasn't the last time that has been his response either. We have a a couple girl names that we both agree on, but he is just quite indecisive which boy name he would choose. I, however, love them both and will probably just let him make the final decision. It's still so far away, but we began talking about this years ago. Believe me, your name will not be something that hasn't been given years of thought! We love you so much, Little One!
