The Lord has blessed us this Mother's Day with an amazing gift...our son Luke. He was born at 1:10 am, what a way to start our day! I was having contractions all night on Friday and all day Saturday, so we thought he would be born on Saturday, but he waited until Sunday morning, and I just love that!
He weighed 6 pounds 12 oz and was 20.25 inches. He is doing really well, and is just precious!
As I layed there after he was born watching them clean him and just staring in amazement at my beautiful son, my second son, I was just hit with so many emotions. There were a few Mother's Days in the last few years that were really hard on me. As we struggled to get pregnant Mother's Day was a tough day, and now a day that was once difficult will forever be one of the most special days of my life. Through my struggles I always reminded myself that God had a plan, and of course that's easier to say than to always fully believe, but over the last 2 years God has shown me that He was always in control; and His plan is way better than mine! I feel like God giving us the gift of our son on this special day is His way of showing us His love and His constant presence in our lives. I can only praise God for my beautiful children and sweet husband!
Nothing is more amazing than the birth of a child. I am glad you are all doing so well. Can't wait to meet Luke!
