Praise God!

He knows what he's doing...

I talked to Mary last night for a while. We were talking about Macy and 'things' when she started to cry and told me that she has recently learned that she is 10 weeks pregnant. This month of all months.. Really not even trying.. She has had an ultrasound and things look great. She will go to CHKD at 16 weeks for testing and another 'better' ultrasound and possibly find out what she's having. And again at about 26 weeks. Dr. Sheffield is watching like a hawk. It was about 16 weeks when the problems with Macy arose. She probably will not carry to 40 weeks (she delivered at 38 with Wade), but we are just praying to carry this baby close to full term. She is expecting to deliver aroung Halloween or even around Bowen's Birthday (oct.28, yeah!!).. And most likely, another C-section. She and Jonathan are "very nervous, but excited!" And they have just told Wade, and he's SO happy--but confused. He thinks it's Macy coming back.

I have felt for so long that having another baby would help Mary. Jonathan has wanted this, but Mary wanted 'a 100% healthy child garantee', which we all know isn't possible. And with them not even trying so to speak, we do feel that this is God's plan. This couldn't have happened to a better or more deserving family.

Please pray for the Jenkins family. Pray that they will NOT have the complications that they had with Macy. Pray that this child will stay inside until the end of October.
