Cauliflower {Baby}

Apparently, our wee baby in the womb is the weight of a cauliflower right now –
although I do tend to have smaller babies so maybe not yet? But I certainly feel pregnant!

 

{26- 27ish weeks}

 

I do not take this pregnancy lightly – as I could have never imagined I would be so blessed to have these seven babies – in a season of my life where dear friends are suffering from the loss of babes in arms and pregnancies cut short, I often feel this pregnancy is a quieter one. Not so public. I would never want to flaunt in front of a dear friend who may be desperately yearning for a little one to love. It is a blessing to have a child but not one we can truly take credit for – I thank God for all the children He chosen to give us but I also feel humbled to be carrying another baby.

It breaks my heart to know of women who would give anything to have their belly grow with new life inside of them. My quiet prayers are lifted up for them, asking God to bless them with a child. I pray for my friends yearning for a baby to cuddle or ones waiting to see the pregnancy test say ‘positive’, others praying for adoptions to pull through with heart break after heart break of failed adoptions. Other precious friends struggle through desperate trials of life threatening sickness ravaging their little ones’ bodies, a grief too heavy for a momma to bear without the Lord. My heart and prayers are sincerley with them.

Children are a gift from Jesus.
Not an accomplishment or something we can brag about it.
We hold them in our wombs and arms but for a short while.
Every priceless day with my children is a day to give thanks to God. They are precious in His sight.
