Positive News!

We heard from Claire last night that she received some good news from the doctors! Apparently the baby was in the breach position, but he has turned on his own, and although she has still been having contractions (in which they had to give her a shot to stop them yesterday), everything else has calmed down for the time being. If she stays that way, they will release her to go home for bed rest next Tuesday! She was very encouraged and thankful for all the support and prayers coming her way.

Speaking of that...a friend of mine opened my eyes to a new perspective of all this. How neat is it that only weeks before all her pregnancy troubles we happened to meet her? We (meaning all of us!) have been able to cover her in prayer and encourage her through this time. Honestly, it has been such an amazing thing to even be a part of...to walk next to someone obviously in need of support, and be able to offer it to her because of a small connection - that little boy. No matter if we end up adopting him, or if another couple does, or if she ends up parenting the little guy, it has been an honor to be a support for a stranger really. God's timing is amazing!

Oh, and on another note, she mentioned that she has heard through the grapevine that Tyler has been talking to his friends about moving forward in the adoption... Please continue to pray! They are obviously working! :)

Have a great evening!
