I have been reading my old entries, and I see a recurring theme. Fatigue, fatigue, fatigue! Well, today I can tell the world just why I am so tired. I am growing a human--that's right, the Scott family is increasing by one. I have known since just after we got home from Jamaica, but I wasn't quite ready to believe it. Well, here is the little munchkin in my 12th week--looking alive and perfect, and I am believing it now.
Tonight, Trey and I told the kids and they are so excited. They began to jump up and down, squeal, and dance. Katie immediately offered to share her toys with the new baby. Chip called his Granna and told her the big news and couldn't contain his enthusiasm. They both said "good night" and "love you" to the little sibling. I know they are in for an adjustment, but my heart is warmed by their initial reaction. Everything is going to work out.

I am thankful for new life and for the love my family shares. Growing a baby, I feel like I am assisting in a miracle--and sharing the news with my children, I feel like I witnessed another one tonight.
