New Life


Today my life changed as I saw and heard for the first time, the beating heart of our child who is at this point 7 weeks and three days into the process of life.

Allyson and I are honored and excited to bring another life into this world and eagerly await the meeting of our first child. Today we had our second doctors appointment which went extremely well and are continuing to prepare our hearts for this new life journey. We find ourselves somewhat speechless in this moment due to the flood of hope-filled feelings that we're encountering. Man, is this cool or what?

Ally's doing well, but is beginning to encounter the whole first trimester sickness thing, which doesn't seem to be much fun, but she's handling it like a trooper. She's glowing, which is so cool and becomes more beautiful each day.

Please pray with us that this child will be healthy and that the Lord's hand will be on his or her life. Thanks for being with us in this journey!

Yippee!!! Congratulations!

Sorry the nausea has set in... If it gives you any hope for the future, mine is tapering off. Hang in there.

Love, Karyn

Tim and Ally-
I was looking at Amber's page and saw that you guys commented...so naturally, i came to your page! can i just say that just being reminded of the good work you two are doing for the Lord brought tears to my eyes. Its a beautiful thing when His children are being obedient...so i just wanted to encourage you in the work that you are doing, and know that i'm thinking about you guys and praying for you (and the beautiful little one!)
