Baby Cornett

For those of you who do not already know...Matthew and I are expecting again! We are so thankful for this undeserved and unpromised blessing from God. We found out we were expecting 1 week after we got our sweet little puppy, Jasper! The first few weeks were a rather nervous time for me. God did provide us with a lot of peace during those few weeks as well, but there was still some fear in me. We got to have an ultrasound at 7.5 weeks and got to hear the heartbeat for the first time. All day before the appointment I was completely at peace and knew that everything was okay with our growing baby, but then right as the baby appeared on the screen I was overwhelmed with a fear that there was not going to be a heartbeat. So, when Major Trump told us she saw the little flutter of the heart, I didn't believe her at first. But then, of course, cried once she let us listen to that little heart beating!

This announcement has been one that has taken a lot of time, thought, and consideration for me. Since we have been through two miscarriages and have felt the fear of the possibility of never having a healthy pregnancy, we have developed some close relationships with other couples who are dealing with the same thing. Because of those close relationships that we have formed, this announcement is one that is, in many ways, difficult to make. We are aware that God never promised to give us a healthy pregnancy. God never promised to give us this blessing. We are sinners and deserve nothing but death. Therefore, each and every blessing in our lives is just that. A blessing. We are thankful that God has given this to us and will continue to pray for our dear friends who long for this as well.

Matthew and I are so excited about this little one and feel so overwhelmed by this blessing!

There will be no announcements or updates on Facebook through this pregnancy.
