Trick or Treat?!

Okay, Wegman’s has Trick or Treat Candy out. What?!  I know it feels like fall but please stop the insanity – school hasn’t even started yet.

Yeah, yeah, I know, come November everyone will be telling me to stop the insanity because I think Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s is all one big party. It is, isn’t it? :p

This year, for the first time ever, I am somewhat excited for school to start. But not because I want the kids out of the house . . . I am really struggling with that this year – the summer just passed by way too quick. But with September brings the start of Revolution Church. This baby was conceived in March of 2013. Now 17 months later we are almost ready to give birth to her. (Yes, it’s a her!)

I feel like any other pregnant mom about to give birth. Scared. Excited. Wondering what I’ve forgotten to plan for. Anxious. Overjoyed. Tired. Overwhelmed. Happy. Ugly (dark circles under your eyes are not attractive!). Scared. Did I mention scared?

Thank you to everyone that has prayed for us, who has contributed financially and who has been there to lend a helping hand. We could never have made it this far without each of you! Some of you helped for a few weeks or months and some just for a day. Some of you have been on our team for a for awhile, some for just a short time and a few of you have been here for the whole pregnancy.

On September 21st, God is going to place this baby of HIS in our imperfect hand. Some days we will be the best parents out there. Other days, not so much. But one thing is for sure – we are going to love this new baby with all her messiness and we are going to embrace her imperfections, as well as our own, as we share the life-changing love of Jesus.
