Trust....

We trusted the Lord. We admitted that we are not wise enough, nor do we have good enough eye-sight (eternal eye-sight), to determine who should get the chance to live and who shouldn't. We confessed, by our actions not just our words, that He is God and we are not. We trusted....

In March of 2011, Lord willing, the Scarbrough family will rejoice over another sweet baby, a gift from the Lord, a treasure beyond measure.

The children are thrilled, so very excited to have another little person to delight in. Oh, how they bless me! I expected them to be a bit indifferent about our news, for some reason. Instead, they whooped and hollered and couldn't wait to announce it from the roof tops.

Thank you for letting me share my news with you!

Erika......

I'm speechless with joy for you.

I remember how your heart wanted so badly to have as many children as the Lord would give you.

Isn't He faithful? Isn't He GOOD? Doesn't He hear each and every whisper and quiet dream of our hearts??

I'm so happy for you!

Thank you for sharing our joy too.

God bless.

You mean when we visited at the ranch this little one was secretly with us? What an awesome blessing. I am so amazed at God's provision for extenting His family to accomplish His purpose. I am humbled that though I speak, act and respond in the flesh His faithfulness accomplishes a purpose far beyond the realm I can see. Earthmuffin, Johnson Ranch and other families I watch are surely touched by God, simply because of His great love.

lucky kids...There are six kids in my family and I now realize how great it was. We all love getting together now and laughing about our childhood. Good luck keeping up during your pregnancy, I don't know how you do it.
I was bummed I didn't get to meet you/see the rest of your family at the little Western reunion...
