The Final Week!



Well, we didn't really think that we would make it to 41 weeks, but here we are! Our little one appears to be pretty attached to his mama. Stephany's due date (Feb. 24) came and went, so tomorrow, Wednesday (March 3), evening we will be going in to the hospital for an induction Thursday (March 4) morning. We are hoping and praying for a safe delivery, and we would appreciate your thoughts and prayers as well.

It is a very exciting time for us, mixed with a lot of hopes and emotions. Stephany's grandfather ("Papa" Sakowski) in California passed away yesterday, so we are mourning that loss and remembering his life and contributions to his family. I have thought of my dad often lately and wished that he could be with us for this experience. While those losses are painful for us, we joyfully look ahead to new life experiences and the coming of a new family member. For us, these things hold substance regarding life's meaning and God's design, and from that we take hope and satisfaction.

We look forward to updating our blog and sending emails soon regarding the arrival of our son!
