Wow, time just goes by. I decided I would try to write a little something before this new baby arrives. We are all very excited getting ready. We finally have done some preparing. We moved rooms around, got some "new" furniture (thanks to the Numainville Family), have a few diapers ready (thanks to the Peterson Family), have a few things washed and ready, but then there are still more things to be done. Names, names, and names.......cooking, cooking....getting the car seat ready......finding the baby swing....oh and I suppose pack some things for the hospital....or make sure I know where the kids are going or who is coming to take care of them (thanks to all who have offered their time!) In the end, this will all work out according to God's will and what more can I ask for. I am truly blessed to be in this crazy time, because really it is such a joyous occasion and I am thrilled!
On this day, I will also start the novena to stop FOCA.
Copied from an email I received: To say a novena ( 9 days of prayer ) along with fasting, starting on January 11th. For Catholics, the prayer of choice will be the rosary with intentions to stop the FOCA. For non Catholics, I encourage you to pray your strongest prayers with the same intentions, also for nine consecutive days. The hope is that this will branch and blossom as to become a global effort with maximum impact.
