I just found out today we're expecting number 9. Despite the fact our home is heading into foreclosure next month and my dh will be the next guy laid off at his company, we are thrilled! As dark as last year seemed to us as a family, I am amazed to look back and see how much growth our family has made. God is so good to prune us when we least want it or expect it.
I would appreciate any prayers you could send my way. I have been packing and decluttering in preparation for the foreclosure and now with a little munchkin to nurture, the prayers will be greatly coveted. I have had such a peace in these last few months and I am completely confident the Lord will supply all we need.
Please pray for me to gracefully handle all the negative comments we are sure to receive. Not only because this is our ninth, but we will be ridiculed as irresponsible. To be honest, it's a miracle I'm even pregnant! My dh is working 2 jobs and I never see him! 
Thank you. I haven't posted much recently as I had to pull back to tend to my family, but I have been praying for your intentions.

Dear Maddie - what wonderful news! I will keep praying for you and your family - God is in charge.
(On a different note - I am sure you have considered everything - but I keep hearing on the news about the huge amounts of funding made available for struggling homeowners? )
