Baby: 6 Weeks

We went to our first OB visit, and got a sonogram. It was the sweetest little dot you've ever seen! The nurse pointed out that it would flicker slowly at times and that was the heartbeat. The most amazing thing was that she said "it probably just started beating about 8 to 10 hours ago". How cool is that?!!?!!! We were both in awe at how that life God began is developing in His time, and we actually have the technology to know about it.

God's idea became a heartbeat and soon it will have a name. Praise God for knowing the end from the beginning! Here is a song by Chris Tomlin that we are singing at church on Sunday. It speaks my heart.

Indescribable, Uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God.
All powerful, Untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees and we humbly proclaim,
You are amazing God.

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go,
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow?
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light,
Yet conceals it to give us the coolness of night?
None can fathom...

Incomparable, Unchangeable,
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same.
You are amazing God.
