expanding the family

yep, it's official. fai and i are expecting two additions to our household. while we were considering when to have our third baby, we decided grown ups are much easier, so while the pregnancy test was negative, our new additions will be joining us on friday. two healthy girls who already sleep through the night and feed themselves, who already use the potty on their own, and who can clean up after themselves! we don't get to name them, though, which is a real bummer. that's half the fun of having kids. but these two come with their names already printed on their name tags: sister ram and sister waite.

while the idea of housing the missionaries stressed me out at first (i won't lie...it still does), i can't really deny the blessings we've already seen, and they haven't even moved in yet! when we were approached about it, we got an offer on our house in florida. when we said yes, we sold the house in florida, fai got a check for something we hadn't thought about in a long time, and i got a really interesting offer to do some editing on a science fiction manuscript. all good things. if this keeps up, i may not let them leave!

It is amazing how the Lord blesses us when we do our part of serving him.
