It has been awhile since I posted and I just wanted to share that Ian and I had our baby on June 9th, 2009. We named her Trinity Patience and she is just gorgeous! We were priviledged to have her dedicated last week at our church in Spokane, Life Center, and trust that she will come to know Christ at a young age and choose to follow Him! Her older brother, Elliot, and sister, Natalie, have been absolutely thrilled (well...not about crying). But they beg to hold her and I have been quite amused at the insight my sweet 8 1/2 yr old son has had as he told Natalie the other day when Trinity started to cry, "Natalie, she is trying to tell mommy something and because she is a baby, she can't talk, so that's the only way she knows how to communicate!" Haha! So sweet! (and true) It is amazing how fast these dear children grow up!
I am excited to be starting out the week with all three kids this week! We have been blessed to have them a few more hours now that they are not in school and their father is working...and I have been home because of the baby (maternity leave).
We are currently trusting the Lord to either provide a different job or position for my husband, Ian, so that he can work a little more or make a little more so that I would be able to stay home more with the baby! As of now, I am set to return to work in just over two weeks and because my Ian's boss changed his schedule, we will not be able to alternate watching Trinity as planned. So...we are searching out our options for childcare, a new job (part time) for me, or a new schedule...something. We can not currently continue to get all our bills paid each month on my husband's current income alone, but God has provided thus far and we have been able to come out even with the prayer and support of friends and our church.
Well, I must get back to the duty of being mother and go play a game of memory before going to grandpa & grandma's house for a bbq! Yeah! Thanks again as always for checking up on me and we appreciate your continued prayer in our lives! :)
