so believe it or not i have been back here at least a half-dozen times, write some, delete all, begin again. by the time i have sit-down time available, i have no thoughts. none. but if i am going to do this, this one must become a reality and be posted.
so lets see. the most exciting thing in my life nowdays is that we are going have a baby! that would be a corporate "we"...it will actually be A doing the bearing down and pushing. wow...brings back some memories...
it is really a bit peculiar, your first grand-child. in the beginning, right after a&m's announcement random thoughts brought me to this place that my life-cycle is complete...yeah yeah i know, you would think that happens when you have kids, but going to the next generation, is more like re-generation..."the legacy" if you will.
so that was the philosophical part - first trimester. the second-trimester brought us an ultra sound pic. now i have seen a few of these in my time - i am not too particularly impressed. but this one...this one...could be classified as "picture perfect". and for me...it made her pregnancy a reality that i got a grand baby coming.
that's cool stuff.
the picture - is such a clear depiction of God's handiwork. we are intricately made - woven in the womb just like the Bible says. knitted together by God!!! that just so amazes me. that He created us for Himself. I mean he could made a world full of fuzzy puppies for Himself - ones that would be forever loyal to Him...but He made us - - - and when we messed up --- gave us an out through His Son, Jesus so that we could stay forever connected to Him...wow. sometimes the whole process is just overwhelming.
time to go.
ya know...my umbrella is still full :))

Amazing, isn't He?
And as special as each baby is, there is NOTHING like the experience of the first... so I imagine that's what you're experiencing with your first grandbaby. Crazy.
Congratulations. :)
And I'm so glad you're back in the blogosphere.
