Yes. That little gold present means what you think.
We are expecting #10... and my due date is CHRISTmas day. I had to run with it for my announcement. Now I don't think that I will have this little one on that day, as fun as that would be, because I am usually late. Only 3 were early. Most were about 2 weeks late.
All the children are excited and are trying to guess what I am going to have. It is quite amusing. It started with Angelina, who has guessed right the last 3 times. Before I got pregnant this time she made mention that she thought that I was going to have twins. Everyone else has run with it now, they were telling people that I was having twins for the last year now and I had to correct the situation so many times now. We do not know and will not for some time I think. And unless we are seriously thinking that we are having twins, we will not likely be having an ultrasound. So I hope that will help clear that up for you if you are told by one of my sweet girls that I am having twins. Now that I have made the announcement, Angelina has decided to go silent on what she thinks I am really having as of now, but I made her write it down and put it in a sealed envelope so that she can still say whether she is right or not without having to share now.
Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house;
your children shall be like olive plants round about your table.
Psalm 128:3
your children shall be like olive plants round about your table.
Psalm 128:3
Except the LORD builds the house, they labor in vain who build it;
Except the LORD keeps the city, the watchman wakes but in vain.
It is vain for you to rise up early, to take rest late, to eat the bread of anxious toil — for HE gives blessings to HIS beloved in sleep.
Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward.
As arrows are in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one's youth.
Happy, blessed, and fortunate is the man whose quiver is filled with them!
They will not be put to shame when they speak with their adversaries in gatherings at the city's gate.
Psalm 127
