Thankful for the blessing of carrying a child


This month, I'm most grateful for the beautiful and amazing blessing and honor it is, to concieve a child and bring them into this world. After a lengthy period of trying to bring a fourth child into the world, I am grateful to finally be pregnant. Every morning that I wake up and I feel nauseous, I smile. It doesn't feel so great, but it gives me the assurance that things are still where they need to be.
Although I'm not really thrilled about my last 3 months being during the hottest months in Phoenix, I find gratitude in knowing that I can be outdoors with a newborn in October, November and December without the fear of the heat.
