Wow, they are all so beautiful! Some of them are SO tiny...being spoken by a beached whale of a pregnant lady! Praying for them and you all! Lots of love!

Hi T -
Some of these ladies had photos taken early in their pregnancy and these show them quite a number of weeks ago. (Although Chrislene's photo is brand new.) They are often very tiny people ... amazes me they can support six and even pound babies.

hi troy and tara.
i went to a conference this weekend and learned about a ministry called "free wheelchair ministry". they are based out of irvine, ca and seem to do great work around the world. they were telling me that recently, they sent many of their wheelchairs to haiti but it hasnt been the easiest of times...
i thought about you two and wanted to connect you in case you or any ministry you are in touch with could benefit from these chairs.

hope you can connect and see if this could be a beneficial relationship. if not, pass on their info to any that it could be!

you bless my life every time i go to your blog. thank you for your inspiration, truth telling, and laughs

Can't pick just one. Praying for all of them.

I delivered twin boys (100% naturally with midwives) this past October, so I will be keeping Vitana in my prayers! My Baby B was breech and I had a lot of pressure to have a c-section, but I pressed forward and prayed a lot and Baby B turned on his own after 38 weeks (I delivered at 41 weeks)! I will pray for better positions for Vitana's babies.

T & T Livesay said...

Thank you Jennifer - it would be SO great for us to deliver Vitana, we all really want to ... if baby's can
1. Turn
2. Wait till April 1
Then we have a shot at it. If they come in March we don't have a experienced enough midwife here to risk that ... but we hope that Baby B turns and that she holds off till April!

Prayers SO appreciated - thanks everyone!

Guerline delivered a 6lb 3 ounce baby girl this morning. Nadine will be next we're pretty sure - probably before Monday.
