Today is April 2011 and is a very special day indeed. I am going to be a big sister again!! It will be the third time. It has been a while since there was a baby in our home. In fact it has been about seven years, wow!! I can hardly contain my joy. I'm anxious, nervous, and very excited!! And lets just say that sleep didn't come easy last night:) I am so ready to hold her and sing to her and change her ( well I'm not overly excited about this part) and protect her and teach her all she needs to know. Having a baby around will definitly take some getting used to. Everything will be so different but in a very good way.
Thank you Father for little sisters and little brothers. For the joy that they bring to us. For there jokes and games (even the ones we weren't so happy about:) For there messes and their uncombed hair. Thank you for your blessings that you give us each and every day. And for a new baby sister. Help me to teach her to make wise decisions. Help me to teach her to be kind. With your help may I teach her to love to praise you. And help me to be a good example for her. But most of all may she grow to love You with all her heart, mind, soul, and strength. May she stay pure for You Father. May she wait patiently for the one that she is to spend the rest of her life with. I have realized that being a big sister comes with big responsibilities.I can not do this on my own. Father help me.
