When Laura was a baby, I was always praying that one day she would become a big sister...I told Mom that if she was ever expecting again, I would cook all the meals, do the laundry, watch the younger ones, clean the house, help with school, make sure she got a nap each day ~ and the list grew!! I just wanted another baby to hold. Finally, I became content with the siblings that God had already given...
Little did I know, that almost 3 years later my chance would come to fulfill "the list" that I so easily rattled off then.
Yes, my parents are expecting blessing #9 due at the end of February or beginning of March. We are so excited and thrilled!
Keeping Momma and Baby in your prayers is much appreciated~
A smiling big sister,
Jenna

Yeah! Such wonderful happy news. Eight is a good number (I speak from experience :) but nine is an extra blessing!
That's marvelous! Children are a blessing from God. I'm very happy for you and your family! I am the fourth of nine :)... though we're mostly all grown up now...
I am so excited for you guys!!! Praise God for such wonderful blessings! :)
Congratulations!!!!
I remember when my mom was expecting #9 she had Samuel just 3 months after my older sister got married. Oh,that was a crazy year!!! :)
I have no doubt you will continue to bless your mom as you have the past several years! Congratulations to you and your siblings!
Love,
Mrs. Miedema
What exciting news!! Wishing you all well!
YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY!!!! Oh Jenna I have been HOPING for this for quite a while!!! A few months ago I was thinking, "Hmm, Laura is getting to be quite a little lady... I wonder if the Lord will give them any more?"
I am so happy for you all and will be praying everything goes well!
I wonder what the Lord is doing right now :) - I either know personally, or keep hearing of, so many Christian families who are expecting children; more at once than I've ever heard of before! Praise the Lord for His goodness!
SOLI DEO GLORIA!
