Congratulations Scott and Kelly!

Well, if I were computer savvy I could figure out how to post a photo of the lovely Kelly from Kelly's Korner. Kelly is a fellow blogger who I have never met, but for whom I have prayed many times. I first found Kelly's blog shortly after I brought Emma home from the hospital......

At that time, Kelly was struggling with infertility and dearly wanted to be blessed with a child. Often, when I woke up at night to feed Emma, the Lord would bring Kelly to my mind, and I would pray. I was so delighted when Kelly announced that she was expecting, and I have had fun following her pregnancy on her blog. (Kelly's Mom has a precious blog too!) In a short time, she and Scott will welcome Harper Brown to their family. In honor of the Big Day, one of Kelly's friends is hosting a bloggy shower. Some of us are posting well wishes on our blog for the happy couple!


The joys of blogging include making new friends, having the honor of praying for people you don't even know, and rejoicing in the opportunity to praise God and give thanks when He abundantly answers those prayers. God bless you, Kelly, as this new chapter in your life begins. I can hardly wait to see a photo of your sweet smile as you cradle little Harper in your arms. I can promise you the joy of that moment will surpass anything you can possibly imagine at this time. Cheers to you, bloggy buddy!

That is precious that you would pray for me when you were up in the middle of the night. That seems to be when I pray the most too - if I can't sleep - I just start praying for whoever God lays on my heart. I know when I'm up feeding - more than ever - I'll want to pray for all those longing to hold a baby in their arms.
Thank you for your sweet, sweet words!
