It has been an exciting journey of 9 months..
God has been truly good. Each trimester has had it's anxieties, but each trimester has taught us much about trust and faith in a mighty God - the God who creates, who gives and who sustains life.
As i approach these last few days of pregnancy, and look forward expectantly to Euan's birth, I cannot help but feel a sense of awe of the God that i worship. I had just bought a sticker photo album to keep Euan's ultrasound scans from the time he was just a few weeks old to the latest 34 week scan. Tears flow gratefully as i admire how he's grown, the intricacies of it all
- the flickers of his heartbeat
- seeing his head, little hands and feet swimming
- seeing his little "manhood" hence confirming he's a boy! =)
- feeling his first nudges
- feeling his strong football kicks
- feeling his hiccups
- seeing his chubby cheeks and round little tummy
- feeling his rolls and squirms
- listening to his "horse-gallop heartbeats" on the cardiotopograph
... I am just so amazed that all these were happening while i ate, slept and moved around.
From a tiny speck - the size of a rice grain, to a 3+kg baby residing happily in my womb, only God can create such an amazing thing.
It's taken 9 months for God to prepare Euan for this world, and it's taken 9 months for God to prepare us for Euan. =) Thank You, Lord.
*Euan, both me & ur daddy are so looking forward to welcoming you into our lives, into our family, into our home. Father God has been so gracious to give you to us, and so we will look to Him to love you, to take care of you and nurture you in the best way we can. Be seeing you on Monday, little darling! =)
