Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart
and wait for the Lord. (Psalm 27:14)
Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
I say to myself, "The Lord is my portion;
therefore I will wait for him."
The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him,
to the one who seeks him; (Lamentations 3:22-25)
I want to know the answers to all of these questions too!!! :Can I answer one of the questions for you - Yes, you will sleep again. There will be a time when you will feel like you will never get a full nights sleep again, but you will :)
ReplyDeleteAlthough it might not feel like it, YOU WILL SLEEP AGAIN!! I totally agree with Kristy. It is key to remember to be thankful. Remember that this baby is your job now and sometimes he or she will require you to work nights for a little while. But thankfulness is key because they grow up SOOO fast! Can't wait to meet your little one!
