So - this morning Elias slept until 8:15 and even then we had to wake him up. I thought this was the day I've been waiting for since he was born, but I have to say - the 12 hour sleep actually depresses me. I had a little breakdown picking him up from daycare today - I even went so far as to cry in front of one of the daycare workers. I'm having a rough week... I think I just forgot about how easily the tears flow when you're pregnant. I walked into work on Wednesday and flopped myself on a $4,000 sofa crying like Greenlea from One Life to Live. Pray for me - for my tearducts, for my husband, and for all those who are forced to come in contact with me over the next few weeks.
While we're asking for prayers - would ya'll lift one up for this house? When we put it on the market, our realtor said he thought we'd have an offer before we got back from out of town that weekend. That was July 12th. So - we're only going on 2.75 months, but we need to make some decisions. And Elias needs some space - it's hard to get frustrated with him when he won't stay on his 4 foot square blanket with his total of 5 toys... that would bore me too if I were 7 months old.

HE knows how to deliver, i dont know its just his business, so dont worry my love deliverance for some carpet and a kitchen table for E and saddie bell on are on the way I can feel it.
Elias is blessed to have the best momma and daddy around...so who cares about square footage??? I've seen the way he looks to you and Nick:)
We'll step up the prayers though and you just keep walking in the promises that God has given you. Remember that doubt, discouragement and despair come only from the one whose name has alliteration with those words.
Our God is bigger than all the market surveys and all the stats. He has such a bounty for us - we need to step over the brink...
I am continuing to keep you, Nick, and Elias in my thoughts and prayers. Continue to stay strong and encouraged in the Lord. He's got you covered. ;)
Be blessed!
