IT'S MY GRANDKIDS AND I'LL CRY IF I WANT TO

At about 2:30 PM on Thursday afternoon I got a call from my daughter Robin. You all know the struggle we all, especially Robin and Chris, have been going through trying to have a family, so two things went immediately through my mind one good, one bad. I said a small prayer before I answered and then heard her voice. Now those of you who know me best will know that I do not handle emotional situations too well sometimes, especially when it involves my family. I am the one in the family that always cries at movies. I think I was traumatized by Ol’ Yeller as a kid. In this case I was able to keep my composure and carry on a conversation with Robin.

Well her news was not good news, it was great news. She is pregnant and everything is positive. My normally calm wife however, fell to pieces and Robin said she was not sure Sandra was going to be able to finish the call. After Robin and I finished, I called Sandra and she was still crying for joy.

Well after all the dust had settled, we both just praised God in Thanksgiving and Praise. Hope and Glory (our name for the embryos when implanted) will now be loved and prayed for.

Noah is the apple of our hearts and we have been blessed with him. Now we fully are trusting God to add to our joy and our family.

(Psa 35:27 KJV) Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.

(Psa 9:2 KJV) I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.

IVF process takes many weeks. We have been praying for this day, throughout time. God is so good in teaching us many lessons. We all know God is Sovergin so God could say yes or no. But he was mercilful and gave us the desires of our heart. We give Him all the praise and glory for this miracle.Sandra
