Today's the day. I just finished my quiet time and I'm about to get ready to leave for the hospital. As I was reading my bible ths morning, I was expecting some great revelation, the perfect scripture for today, and God in His infinite wisdom did not disappoint! As I was readng Proverbs 16, my tummy was growling and I was thinking, "I'm so hungry already and I can't eat until after Asher is born. I sure hope he comes quickly." And then I read Proverbs 16:26
"The laborer'sappetite works for him; his hunger drives him on."
Y'all, I just had to laugh! God knows with my emotions in hyper drive this morning that I needed a good dose of laughter. God is so good but He is also so funny!
Asher, I'm looking forward to holding you today. Mommy loves you so much already. And even though your name means 'blessed', I know well be the ones who is blessed by having you in our lives.

OH, I'm so excited for you. Let me be the first (I think) blogger to say, "Welcome, Asher!"
Beautiful friend...I'm praying over your day, each labor (and hunger!!) filled moment, as you prepare for the glorious wonder of waking up as a family of five and going to sleep as a family of six. Man, isn't He just SOMEthing??
Asher, you have no idea what blessings await you in your wonderful family. Give your mommy a hug for me. :o)
