I'm pregnant! We prayed and we prayed and we prayed for Lee. We tried everything we could think of. If you've read my post about PCOS, you know exactly what we went through. And for some unknown reason, other than God himself putting a hand on my shoulder, we have conceived a child without the … Continue reading And then three became four
My husband was up and out of the house before the crack of dawn this morning to go duck hunting with his buddies. It was like 28 degrees outside. They're insane.
