BABY TALK
I have to preface this blog by saying this is in NO WAY a precursor of things to come anytime soon.
But after having said that, I have to say that it's been nearly a week since I had the privilege of holding my first newborn baby (only 2 days old!), thanks to Mark and Gina ... and they're new son Gabriel. There is nothing, absolutely nothing, that compares to holding a newborn baby. And with that still fresh on my mind, we heard the great news that Charles and Lisa are now expecting. And funny thing too because we were just talking this weekend about who would be the first from the CEFC family that would be expecting.
And again, with all this still swirling in our minds, we met with other young married couples and some "more seasoned" married couples in Charis to discuss married life while raising kids. It was an interesting evening filled with open and honest discussion and Q&A about how life changes, some practical suggestions, and some good advice from a Christian perspective. It was very helpful and informative to get different viewpoints about parenting and married life. And we both felt comforted about what the future might bring us.
Just not anytime soon. =)

If not now, when?
Psalm 127:3-5a
Sons are a heritage from the LORD ,
children a reward from him.
Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
are sons born in one's youth.
Blessed is the man
whose quiver is full of them.
