We will be showing my house twice this coming week. The first showing has been a long awaited one, for both parties. The mom of a neighbor is going through a challenging time in her life and relocating to Ohio from Florida (that alone is a challenge - LOL!!). For many years she has admired the cute little house on the corner and has asked regularly over the last year if it's still for sale. She is in town visiting right now and will be coming to see it. Her daughter and family lived just down the street when I moved in almost 12 years ago. Their son and his wife now live next door to them. I know they would love to have her just down the street. And I would love to leave my home to her care. Her circumstance is unfortunate so please pray for God's will for her and the best possible outcome for her future, whether it be on Farnham Avenue or not! We have another young woman who is interested and whose Grandma lives just up the road as well.
We have an even bigger event on Friday as we have our next, and hopefully final, ultrasound. They will be checking again for signs of cystic fibrosis in our little guy. Please pray with us that the ultrasound shows a healthy and developing little boy. If things look good on this ultrasound we don't anticipate they will do another. I am excited to see him but anxious as we check again for CF. We have an appointment at Children's next week with their genetic counselor to find a pediatrician that is trained and experienced with CF as we won't know for sure until about a week after his birth whether he has CF or not. We are opting to be prepared and praying we won't need that particular part of his expertise. We covet your prayers for our little boy.
I have been busy working on preparing the house and our furry babies for our new arrival. This week mom and I will dive into the nursery and start it's transformation. I'm including a photo (courtesy of Lisa) which is the inspiration for his room ... turtles, turtles, turtles! I love sea turtles. :)
12 weeks to go!
Have a blessed week ahead!
