Thanks for your prayers!

It's about four in the morning and I'm unable to sleep. I know that's kind of a side effect of the medication that I am on, but it doesn't really help with anxiety levels much! I've just been awake researching all that has gone down in the past four days, from medications to tests that have been done, and my mind is kind of whirling! I'm so relieved that the Lord is in control. However, I think I'm going to need a few reminders of that throughout this whole process! It is also a relief to know that there is a 99% chance that the baby won't be born within the next two weeks, which increases Shooshi's chances of being born more healthy! Please continue to pray that:

1. This medication that I am on (terbutaline) will indeed slow down and/or stop my contractions.

2. That Greg and I would continue to trust the Lord and lean on Him and one another.

3. That this baby will be born full term!

Thanks so much for your support and prayers! We have the best family, friends, and church family that we could ask or pray for! We love you guys!

You'll all be in our prayers!! I know this verse is well known and it's easy to let the words not sink in, but it's such a great verse... Proverbs 3:5-6, read it slowly and embrace every word:
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understandings; in all your ways, acknowledge Him, and He will direct your path.
