Inside of Two Weeks
I haven't written about it much, but that doesn't mean it hasn't consumed our lives for the last nine months. I'm talking about the upcoming birth of our son. We are within two weeks of the scheduled birth and can't wait. Unless Karen goes into labor early (which could happen), we will go in for a delivery via c-section on the 27th of this month.
Jacob is also very excited about getting a new brother. I'm not sure if he fully understands how radically it is going to rock his world, but we've tried very hard to explain how things will be different. He says he knows and is ready...we'll see.
As you think of us, I would appreciate you remembering us in your prayers. Karen is getting a little wigged out over the prospects of another surgery. With the two for her arm late 2005 and the two related to the miscarriage last year, this will make the fifth surgery she's had to undergo in 17 months. So, understandably, she's not looking forward to being opened up yet again. Besides that, this hasn't been an easy pregnancy. She has not felt good in several months and is hoping to get back to some semblance of normalcy following this birth. And for me, well, as the old saying goes, "When momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy." It hasn't been that bad, but it is hard seeing her go through so much over such a long time. I will be happy when she can get back to herself. So, just remember us if you will. Thanks.

David,
Please know that my prayers are with you, Karen and Jacob. I wish I could be there with you all to help in any way that I could, but I am there in spirit knowing that through our Almighty Father we are eternally connected. Give my love to Karen and hug Jacob for me and tell him Uncle Lou loves him a lot!

Lou,
Thanks so much! We love you and Ginny very much and wish you could be here is as well. I hope you are able to visit soon.
So, how is winter going in MA? The trees are in full bloom here!! OK, that was a cheap shot, wasn't it? ;-)
Take care and keep in touch!
Love, bro.

Jesse and I are praying for you, Karen and Jacob! Hoping things go well. We really miss you guys. So many pregnant friends lately, we sure do have a lot to pray for! Keep us posted. Oh and just for the cheap shot at Lou...Well our trees in Texas have been bloomin for a while and veggie plants are already takin' off...cheap shot back at ya:) - Danielle
Thanks, Jesse and Danielle. I would say, "touche" except I lived in Texas...there aren't that many trees.! :-)
We miss y'all, too. Have you not lived in Texas long enough to say "y'all"?
Love you both.

My family is also looking forward to a birth in two weeks. We are expecting our third child on the 30th (via c-section). My oldest son Jacob is also looking forward to a new sibling while my wife Andrea is nervous about the surgery - we had a miscarriage last year as well. The coincidences here are very close.
Hang in there, you'll be changing diapers and being forced awake at 3am in no time.
Good luck and my prayers are with you.
Wow, no kidding. The coincidences are almost creapy. Our prayers are with you and Andrea. Keep us posted on how things go with you. Thanks for writing and keep up the good reviews.
...and after all this time, a picture...Nehring has a face! ;-)
