The Six Words I've Been Dying to Say...

I've been trying to think of a cute or clever way to say this, but I've given up. So here it is:

I'm going to be a Mommy!

Yes it's true! And Jonathan's going to be a Daddy! And Cody's going to have to share his space with a fur-less loud little wrinkly thing.

I have to get back to work, so I'll give more details later, but I can tell you that our baby boy is due tomorrow. Tomorrow?! What?! Yep. Tomorrow. So, like I said, I have to get back to work! We have a nursery to whip together, tiny baby clothes to wash, and some panic attacks to have.

Will write more later!

Those are the six words I've been dying to hear! God makes wonderful miracles, doesn't he? You will make amazing parents and to say that I am "happy" for you really doesn't do it justice. Congratulations and God Bless!

I second Kelsey's statement...the 6 words I've been waiting to hear!
I cannot tell you how many prayers have gone up for you guys (and continue to!) I am so thankful that God hears us and answers prayers.
You will be such a fantastic mom, I know it's what you were put on this Earth to do (among all of the other MANY things you are talented at).
I'll be anxiously awaiting "the call". LOVE YOU!

I don't know you except through Kelsey's blog, but I just wanted to let you know I'm so excited for you. When I was thinking about God's love this morning, your faces popped into my mind. This little boy is going to be so loved. What a blessing!!! I am praying for you as you prepare. And I'll pray for the safe birth of your son!!

I think everyone who knows you guys has been dying to say "BECKY & JONATHAN ARE GOING TO BE PARENTS!!" and now we finally get to. Your family plans have been in my thoughts & prayers (even Lars prays for you guys), and I'm simply giddy as the next phase begins. Like Melissa, I'm anxiously awaiting "the call." Congrats!!!!!

I cried yesterday while talking to Melissa about your good news, and cried again today while reading your blog. Congratulations not only to you and Jonathan, but to your lucky little baby for being given such a wonderful couple as parents. God has truly blessed all of you.
