I'm so impress...Your posts are so well done, honey! I'm so impressed with your candor and openness, sharing your heart and faith with all of us... and you have such good supporters that share with you in this journey and write from their own similar experiences. What a blessing - tremendously valuable, I would think, and a marvel of our times. Mary would have loved a blog page, I imagine, as her support group (Gabriel aside)consisted of having to live for 3 months out of town with a much older cousin (also surprisingly pregnant) and fielding snarky questions from Judean gossips("OK, seriously, who's the daddy?", "you're a virgin? really?"). I am so proud of you and David, and baby JMP! I will continue praying for his healing and safety, and can't wait for him to arrive! And once he's here and home from the hospital, there will be no more waiting! And lil' Kay will tell you that "You can keep him!"...just like a pet fishhh.Papihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12619452666478468323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3210605784428782137.post-79027857566091943422009-05-13T21:43:00.000-07:002009-05-13T21:43:00.000-07:00First things first... your baby bump is darling! Y...First things first... your baby bump is darling! You look fantastic for being as far along as you are! Good for you! <br />Second, the anxiety is so normal. I have had it before going to the hospital with each of my children. Your brain starts to go wild with the fear of the unknown. Just try hard to be one step ahead of the anxiety. Like when you feel it coming on, don't give into it. turn on relaxing music, go on a walk (or try to), call a friend and talk about something other than babies, etc.... or try and think calming thoughts like "I can't wait to rock him and what will his first outfit be... " fun things like that. <br />I am excited for you. Being a mom is so amazing! This will be one beautiful experience! Can't wait for pictures of your sweet little one! Keep us all posted when you can! You'll be in my prayers. The Lord is awesome and I believe He holds a special place in His heart for babies that come down with some "extra's".<br />Take care my friend!Sarah Hullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09811434566074204836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3210605784428782137.post-16508879927964465012009-05-13T15:05:00.000-07:002009-05-13T15:05:00.000-07:00Hi Joanna,
You look amazing!!! Can you believe it,...Hi Joanna,<br />You look amazing!!! Can you believe it, 2 weeks? Very exciting. I know exactly what you mean by the "anxiety" leading up. I had that with both my children. I think I was in tears the few weeks before both their due dates. I was so nervous. I promise you though, everything will fall into place. These little bundles are so much fun! I'm so excited for you to welcome yours into the world!Meinhardt Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18276656955667582142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3210605784428782137.post-7796120059359959012009-05-13T10:22:00.000-07:002009-05-13T10:22:00.000-07:00Just between you and me, you've put on a little we...Just between you and me, you've put on a little weight...Kayleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10120412415834835008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3210605784428782137.post-594560361638688032009-05-13T07:37:00.000-07:002009-05-13T07:37:00.000-07:00Thank you guys.

I promise that it IS so much easier once they are here!!! :) It is impossible not to worry about all of those little things that you are worrying about, but once you see your little man, you will be so filled with love and joy that somehow those worries just vanish. :)Hang in there, soon you will see your perfect little peanut! :) I can't wait for the pics!!!Leigh and Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07582399854757717450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3210605784428782137.post-3800536022995695162009-05-12T17:14:00.000-07:002009-05-12T17:14:00.000-07:00Oh Joanna,
We will continue to pray that all goes ...Oh Joanna,<br />We will continue to pray that all goes well and that everything will work out as best as can be. It's easy to say don't worry, but I know I'm terrible at following my own advice. I will say that like with anything in life that is uncertain and worrisome, when it comes, God gives us the strength to get through it and although there may be some times you'll be sad or things won't go as expected, you'll be surrounded by those who love you and care. During those times, lean on them.<br />Cherish every moment. Before you know it, he'll be throwing a temper tantrum at the most inconvenient time and you'll be wishing he was back inside! :)Mickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15915688928925109798noreply@blogger.com
