Prayers Needed!

A phone call, a frantic drive to the hospital and our granddaughter will arrive very soon. Hopefully, not until morning and without drama. Although drama is already present in this crisis.

At her appointment this afternoon it was discovered that there was very little amniotic fluid present and the baby must be delivered quickly. A nurse literally walked our daughter over to the hospital maternity floor where within minutes she was in bed and the baby was being monitored.

Because of the anticoagulant our daughter injects each morning, it will be very risky to deliver the baby before morning.

I am not sure who I am more afraid for, the baby or my daughter. They are one and the same now. I am begging God to cradle them both in His arms and let us, especially her, have this baby. Please God, do not take this gift from us now. And I have peace again. I know He has not brought us this far without a plan that will bring Him praise and glory.


" Let heaven and earth praise him, The seas, and everything that moveth therein."

Psalm 69:34

Change Is A-Comin'

Going to lunch with my daughter today was memorable. Dining at our favorite restaurant for the last time as simply Mother and Daughter. Things will change and we can hardly wait to be Mother, Daughter and Granddaughter! The missing piece of us will be arriving in approximately two weeks.

So many lunches have been spent dreaming of this child and how wonderful it would be to have a little one to share our special times. God has heard our prayers and answered. Praise Him from whom all blessings flow!

Serendipity

Just yesterday I was praying for my baby to be blessed with a baby of her own. Days turned to weeks, and weeks to months, and months to years. Joy moved to sorrow and sorrow to joy in an alarming pattern. Hope dashed and restored to be dashed again.
Stoic hearts continually prepared to absorb pain are not so quick to register the absence of it.

The full impact of answered prayers has taken a while to settle into the recesses of my mind and heart. I am not proud of this, but trusting God, and not letting go of the fear is not conducive to peace of mind.

Excitement brings joy and a little less fear with each passing day. I am like a child waiting on Christmas while it seems as if it will never arrive.
