Prayer
I feel like yesterday was a huge milestone for me and my mom. Since I lost the baby in October I have been very careful what to say and what not to say to my mom. I have kept my guard up just because I didn't want her to worry about me. I haven't shared with her how badly i want another child because I know she is worried and scared for us. We as parents never want to see our children hurt even when they are grown. Well yesterday her and I were talking and I felt like it was the right time for me to do some sharing with her. I told her that Marc and I were ready and we felt like the children were also ready. So I told her that we had begun praying for a healthy pregnancy to go full term with a healthy child. I know she prays alot and I mean alot, so I asked her to put us on her list. I know it doesn't seem like a big deal to some but it was a turning point in my relationship with my mom. I felt like i could share my dreams with her again and i haven't felt that for awhile. So when we hung up the phone she said, "I love you and I will pray for you tonight." I love it because I know this will be bathed in prayer not only by us but also by my mom. Thanks mom for keeping the door open.

I totally understand this. I have been careful what I have shared with my mom at times too. It is also wonderful when you feel free to share your heart and she will be praying for you.
I am still praying for you and that God will give you a healthy full term pregnancy.
Blessings,
Karen
Oh Susan, I am so glad that everything is working out for you and your mom. I love both of you and I believe mom's are so important in our lives as moms. Love ya
Well daughter, this did bring the tears of joy to my eyes...as you shared your heart and later we may look at our posts together and see how God has worked through them for many of those we care about in the family and our very dear friends. love mom
Susan,
How wonderful that you were able to share this with your mom...we are not there, yet=). I will put you on my prayer list, Susan. I know that this is a huge step of faith that comes with a lot of emotions...but God will carry you.
Love you!
So happy for you. I will also be praying that God will bless you with a healthy, beautiful baby to add to the Jensen clan:)
