Well, the Christmas season is upon us! Our house is all decorated, and Owen is super-excited about Santa coming soon! We have been reading the Christmas story and learning about the wise men and "King Her-i-od" and how Baby Jesus was born where the stinky animals sleep.
This is an especially special Christmas for our family because we have a new addition! This time last year, Ben and I had what would end up being our final procedure with the fertility specialist. I remember hanging our stockings last year and wondering if Owen would ever have a sibling. I was so discouraged with our struggle.
But we serve a God whose name is Jehovah Rappha, The God Who Heals; El Roi, The God Who Sees Me; Jehovah Jireh, The God Who Provides. He saw our situation, He healed us, and He provided Shepard, just as He provided Owen. It wasn't on our timetable, it wasn't through that procedure, but it was all in HIS perfect timing. Thank you, Lord, for these two miracles!
Here's Owen watching "How the Grinch Stole Christmas."
Here we are at our city's Christmas Parade. Owen saw Santa riding on top of a big firetruck! There were no horses this year, which was a bummer.
Merry Christmas!
Ben, Cammie, Owen & Shepard
