Dear friends
This week we were so happy to find out that our baby #6 is on the way - we see this as so miraculous - our Michael is only 14 months and I have never conceived so quickly before. (and given that I just turned 40 and have not been so well all year!). I found this post that I wrote less than 2 years ago - and I am begging for the same prayers. On the 23rd we have a very early sonogram to make sure that it is just #6 and not #7 too given our history of identical twins!
Please pray for energy and health for me - I have already been hit by total exhaustion and the start of being unable to eat anything. I need to be able to keep cooking and teaching and cleaning and being mum - lots of littles need me to function. Also that I might be able to control the allergies with minimum medication.
Thank you all so much.

Just adding - my dd who is the only girl is convinced that this has to be a girl - baby is due on the Feast of the Visitation - I would be happy with boy or girl - especially if I can avoid bedrest and other complications and just make it to May.

We are all so excited here, Marilyn!!! And, you know we've got you and this baby covered in prayers til May!
I'm praying with so much empathy for all of the practical challenges in early pregnancy, but mostly for a healthy pregnancy for you and this little one.
Sarah's rooting for a girl, too!  She says to tell Abby that the secret to having a baby girl is to not want one. BIG WINK! Ok...I am too sort of.

Oh wow! Congratulations!! And prayers too. Please let me know if there is something I can do to help while you're not feeling great. If it would help please feel free to eat that lasagne I keep forgetting to call you about in the midst of our family's many appointments
