Samara 'on the phone'
And then.... introducing BEE BO!!
(Bee Bo does have legs, by the way... they're just moving too much!)Tim and I got a sneak peek at little Bee Bo this morning. The Lakeshore Pregnancy Center in Holland is training technicians in ultrasound equipment. They were looking for 'models' and we signed up. So, here he/she is! Bee Bo was moving all over the place... Not being able to feel him/her yet, this was amazing to me. What a window on my child's little world... And to think, even when I can't see or feel Bee Bo, Bee Bo is living, moving, dancing.
As was Christ, in the womb of his mother...
As is God with us - even when we can't see God - even when we're not paying God particular attention. God is living, moving and dancing.
And in the thin places, the window places, the ultra-sounds and ultra-sights of God's presence make us laugh and cry and hope.

Please pray for the family of our young friend, Ali Aardema, who died this morning. May there be windows for her family and friends today and in the weeks to come.

I love hearing that pre-talk. It's so sweet and shows just how observant kids are. They don't miss a beat!
What a sweet ultrasound picture. It is truely amazing. It amazes me that anyone can believe in anything but God after experienceing pregnancy and birth. The fact that any of us are here is a mericle. Big bang? Yeah I think not! :)
Samara is so so so cute! I miss her! :P
I'm so excited about Bee Bo, too! Yay! Keep up the good work, little one/mom! ;)
I'm still planning on *next* friday morning, at least by 10! perhaps I'll be able to come to the class. :)
