All that is needed of you today is that you show up, faithful in the tasks right in front of you, no matter how large or small.
Whether it's sweeping the floor for the third time this morning (looking at you, Moms), responding to that email with genuine kindness (letting God be your vindicator), hammering that nail, plunging that toilet, researching, writing, digging, painting, it all matters.
@AMS_Perkins Eat chicken liver and red meat daily, take hemaplex and regular prenatals daily and keep dairy intake away from meal times (very important, dairy reduces iron intake by half if taken with meals). Helped me stabilise my plummeting iron levels in pregnancy this time.
@naurpillled Learning to split my time between different needs was challenging so I say 1-2, even more so than 0-1. However I’m only 1 week into 2-3, but it’s been going well.
Sisters, don't be this woman.
Be your husband's greatest encourager, not his biggest anchor.
You have tremendous power in this regard, either to spur him on to greatness or to drag him down to misery—and yourself along with him.
9 months pregnant, barefoot and in the kitchen for the third summer in 4 years, cooking my family a lovely meal with joyous expectation of this baby’s grand arrival at any moment. God is good.❤️
“Mummy… you must have 10 babies. No, I want 21 brothers. Actually, 22!!! 23, 24…”
my 3yr old who is counting down the days to meet his new sibling.
This new life already brings SO much joy to our family before even exiting the womb.❤️
One day you’re nursing your tiny and delicate first born baby to sleep and the next he’s a strong and brave little boy coming home from Brazilian jiu jitsu proudly showing off his new belt colours.
Almost 4. Where did the time go?! 🥲❤️
“He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does Yahweh require of you but to do justice, to love lovingkindness, and to walk humbly with your God”
Micah 6:8
3yr old’s family prayer before we left for church on Sunday:
“Thank you for our obedience, for much much love in the church, may we worship God, in Jesus’ name, amen.”
SO sweet!
No, gay men should not to allowed to buy babies via a surrogate.
No, single straight men should not be allowed to buy babies via a surrogate.
No, single women shouldn’t be allowed to buy babies via a surrogate.
No, married heterosexual couples shouldn’t be able to buy babies via a surrogate.
Is that clear enough for you?
Surrogacy commodifies a baby, reducing the child into a product to be purchased, grossly violating that child’s human dignity.
Surrogacy then robs the baby of mother and/or father, all to gratify adults who think their desire for a child trumps the wellbeing of the child who deserves an intact natural family.
Surrogacy in all circumstances is a gross violation of natural law.
It should be illegal.
This should not be a controversial opinion.
It’s the most heartwarming part of pregnancy. My kids already loving on their sibling before even meeting him/her, constant belly hugs+ kisses, and my eldest old enough to be eagerly waiting and asking about the baby daily. He can’t contain his excitement.
God is so kind to me.
Being pregnant with three other children eagerly awaiting their sibling is the sweetest experience. They kiss my belly and talk to the baby every day.
If you have a child and can give them a sibling, please do. It’s the best gift you can give your child.
