Day 23 & Hospital update

Day 23
Pray that your husband will be a good father - disciplining his children wisely and loving them unconditionally. If he is not a father, pray that he will find a young man to mentor in the things of the Lord. (Eph 6:4, Col 3:21, 2 Tim 2:1-2)

Again, it's funny how these prayers align with our lives. Today, we will (hopefully) be having our second child and the prayer today is for Marc to be a good father. It has been such a joy to watch Marc over the last almost 3 years as he has been a father to Isaac. Every time I see him interacting with Isaac, wrestling on the floor, reading books, putting him to bed, taking him to the demolition derby :), it makes me just fall in love more.

In about an hour I'll get 'unhooked' from all the monitors and such and get to take a shower before we start the pitocin. With Isaac, we started pitocin at 11am, the doc broke my water at 2pm, labored until 8:30pm and finally gave in for an epidural, started pushing at 1am and Isaac was born at 4am. I'm REALLY hoping this goes a bit quicker!!!
