Many of you already know that Kim is pregnant again. Right now she is at about 10 weeks. We will go to the doctor for the first time on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, so we will know how things are going then. So far so good. Except, of course, for the reality that Kim is pregnant. By that I mean the normal hormonal changes that occur in the first trimester. Kim is having a hard time now, but even with that we think the news is good. When she was pregnant with Michael she experienced wild emotional swings and often had terrible depression, but no morning sickness except for some dizziness. After the first trimester that all went away. When she was pregnant earlier this year with the baby we lost to miscarriage, Kim didn't have any symptoms or side effects. Now she is sick all the time, either tired or on the verge of throwing up, but no mood swings. So we hope that is a good sign that this pregnancy is really taking hold.
We wanted to say to all our friends and family, especially our church family, how much we appreciate all the love and prayers you have given this year. It has meant so much to us, and we hope it will continue. Issues of life, death, conception and birth continue to be mysteries to us, but we live our lives in faith in the God who loves us and is good beyond measure, and we join hands with our friends and family as we walk together down the straight and narrow road. Thank you for journeying with us.
Here is a picture of Michael in his Halloween costume. He was a fireman, obviously.
