Princess for a day

What a day! I love having family in town, especially when they are here to help. With extra caregivers in the house, I have had my first real opportunity for "me time" in years. Woohoo!

Mothers, just imagine a world in which you are able to take a long, relaxing shower in the morning...even after the kids are awake. You take your time getting ready without a single voice yelling, "Mommy!" or "Honey!" You nap for almost two hours in the afternoon, just because you're feeling a bit tired. Homemade meals are prepared for you around the clock. The kitchen cleans itself. Imagine the stress melting away. Ahhh...total calm. This was my reality today. Although it is temporary, I feel like royalty!

Wade and I are very thankful for the outpouring of support and love we continue to experience throughout this process. Thank you for your prayers and cards. Thank you to those who have written comments here and to our personal email. We appreciate it more than you know!

Tomorrow is one of our two big days with IVF. Please pray that the doctors will extract 15+ eggs and that many embryos will result from fertilization. The more we have, the more chances for children in the future.

Hope you have a great weekend.
Lots of love,
Ramona

Ramona -
Best of "luck" tomorrow - we all know there's no such thing as luck, as the Lord will be right by your side guiding the doctor's hands and calming your heart. I'll be thinking about you over the next few days. I pray that everything turns out perfectly and successfully and that within a couple of weeks we will be rejoicing with you!

We pray God's comfort and peace with you both tomorow. This must be physically and emotionally hard on you and emotionally hard on Wade..... We are thinking about you and praying God's devine power and will be done!

Ramona and Wade,

We have a small army of prayer warriors here in Atlanta, GA thinking of you and cheering God on to show Himself through 2 more little Wichts (at least)!! We believe in praying BIG and praying BOLD... Nothing is impossible with God!!

Love you both- Wendy
