Answered Prayer

Some time back I mentioned some tension in the family between Birdie and her parents stemming from when we announced we were going to have our fourth child. We were very concerned about what would happen when they found out about the fifth one that is on the way.

They came to visit today and I was not home in case there were problems. When they arrived Sneefert informed his Grandma on the way in the door that Mama was going to have a baby. Things went very well from there and they are actually seeing the child as the blessing and gift that he/she is. They also understand our position on letting G_d decide our family size as well. All around this was a good visit. And we have no more worries about Birdie’s family being against this child. They even like the names we have picked out.
