I enjoy looking at Jedidiah's ultrasound photo and knowing he's alive, cozy and safe in your womb. <br /><br />Your faith is insipiring to me. Your honesty, so real, as it should be. Thank you for sharing your journey with us.<br /><br />JulieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3430678038554058515.post-18422054126913785652010-09-23T19:48:33.034-04:002010-09-23T19:48:33.034-04:00Liz, as I read what you are writing, I hear myself...Liz, as I read what you are writing, I hear myself through you. You are on the similar path God called John and me to walk last summer. I even said those same words.. He's alive today. I remember posting about it earlier this year sharing my same thoughts. KNow that you are so in the company of so many who share in this heavy cross with you and will be here to help you through the heavy times.

Another very insightful post! Since Al...Elizabeth,<br /><br />Another very insightful post! Since Ali, I know my attitude has changed drastically about those last few weeks of pregnancy! It doesn't make it any easier or more comfortable physically, but I find myself much more content to wait for the baby than I was before. Even now expecting a "healthy" baby, I realize more that there are no guarantees. If I am so focused on being in a hurry to get this baby born as soon as possible, I am missing out on enjoying all the time I have now with the baby.<br /><br />You are in my constant thoughts and prayers. And thanks again for so openly sharing yourself with us all!<br /><br />Jillpooljahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07538855490973858688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3430678038554058515.post-14597287641978690272010-09-23T13:46:28.198-04:002010-09-23T13:46:28.198-04:00Have Faith Elizabeth that God has this whole journ...Have Faith Elizabeth that God has this whole journey planned out for you with the most love and only goodness in mind. Have Faith that He will choose the perfect day for Jedidiah to be born and the perfect day for him to be called to Heaven. Sounds so hard... keep in mind where Jedidiah will be called to, what it will be like for him and how you and Chris were chosen to be parents of a Saint! Of an Angel given to you by God! What a gift Elizabeth. An amazing gift that may not be able to be seen thru the sadness you will feel but someday you will know the priveledge of being the chosen parents! God knew you could handle this, knew you would make the most of it and knew you would teach so many others thru your experience....and you have done that! <br />Labor will come, Jedidiah will be delivered into this world, and thru it all you will feel God's love, feel God's power and feel how you are the best Mom He could have given Jedidiah!!!<br />'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'

Thank you God for the gift of Jedidiah Joseph! May God give you/us strength to bear what is to come and be ready for "His Will be Done". Love you guys & sending you a BIG hug.
