Curt and I got the most surprising and exciting news of our lives!! We are having a baby!!! When we found out we were shocked, we were not planning on this little gift, but the Lord obviously was! After we got over the initial shock, we are so excited to have such a wonderful addition to our lives. Curt and I have such a great relationship and the best friendship you could imagine. We love spending time together doing anything and everything. I was curious to see how this would impact our relationship. I think maybe I was nervous at first because things were so perfect and we were having so much fun just being together. Despite my slight worries and the anxieties of becoming parents, life with Curt just keeps getting better. It is amazing how close it is bringing us together. We both have said that we now have feelings we have never felt before. Our feelings towards each are becoming so much deeper and more powerful at the thought of having created something together. We are now aware of the intimidating, but wonderful responsibility of someones life and learning. The greatest of all feelings is the even deeper and more connected feeling to Heavenly Father we have had. Soon after discovering I was pregnant I was laying in bed after Curt and I had said our prayers and Curt had drifted off to sleep. I still had more in my heart I wanted to express to Heavenly Father. Part of what I felt and did was thanking Him for entrusting us with such an amazing power and letting us raise someone from a baby to child to teen (yikes) to an adult! What a process!!! Life really is the greatest miracle of all miracles! We are so happy to share our news with everyone!!
I am almost three months pregnant and so far so good!! The due date is July 25th!! The Chinese gender calender says its a boy. The string with a pin on the end of it dangling over the belly says its a girl. I have the worst heart burn ever! Curt is the most excited expectant father you could ever imagine! I am still trying to come to grips with the whole thing!!!
We are so happy to share the news and we welcome any suggestions and advice you may have.
Love,
Curt, Julie and Claire/Boy (name unchosen)
