A year ago, on November 2, 2008, I was sitting in church. Ben and I were trying for our second baby and I was eagerly paying attention to any signs that maybe, I was pregnant. That day, I was praying about it. I was asking God to let me know when the right time was, and to allow me to become pregnant in His time.

Suddenly I felt very light, and it seemed that God was talking to me. He was telling me that I was pregnant, that now was the time. I was absolutely sure of this.

When we left, I told Ben about this. I told him that either I was pregnant then, or I would be very soon. As it happened, that is the night I conceived Daniel. I took a test 10 days later, on November 12th, and it was positive! I was thrilled, but not really surprised.

Now Daniel is approaching 4 months old. How amazing he is! Maybe because of this prayer, he felt special to me through my whole pregnancy. My first ultrasound at 9 weeks, he was upright and facing the "camera," and his features were completely clear. This is really unusual for such an early ultrasound. I knew he was boy, even before a 20-week ultrasound on my birthday confirmed it. He is "Daniel" because it means "God is my judge," which I thought was a really great meaning for a first son.

God is awesome, isn't He?
