Welcome to my little writing corner. I count my many blessings to be a cherished wife and an ever-learning-loving-growing mother to 3 amazing children this side of Heaven and a precious little boy in Heaven. Together as a family we pastor a precious church community called Redeeming Hope Church. I've had the privilege of loving and following Jesus Christ since my earliest memories as a child. No matter what I've gone through in life, He has always been so present. At heart, I'm an encourager ... so this is a place where I get to wear my heart on my sleeve and share my journey of learning to live a life of love in action.

Meet the new man in our lives

So this week we happened to meet a very charming little man who has snuck into our hearts. We've only met via pictures and telephone chats ... but already he owns our hearts. Before you get all nervous on me ... meet our soon to be pup ... Cosmo.
How jolly cute is this little guy!!! Oh my word ... the girls are beside themselves with joy (and so are we!). We have been super blessed by a precious member in our family who has bred this sweet little guy. The only down side is that we have 3 more weeks to wait for his big arrival in the family. 
He still has a little growing to do ... but oh my word ... he is so anticipated and boy oh boy is this little guy going to be doted on when he arrives. 
As he is a Scottish Terrier, we looked up some male Scottish names. Our favourites were Sarge, Duffy and Cosmo. After finally getting his pictures today we are convinced that this peaceful little guy looks like a Cosmo. What do you guys think? Any other suggestions? 

Sending you all my love xxx
Janine

OH he's ADORABLE! The Scottish name that comes to mind right away is Wallace, but I think he looks like a good Cosmo!

Reasons to Celebrate

We are Seeing the Miracles Unfold!

Precious friends and family ... we are starting to see the miracles unfold! We just KNOW that we are living in the miracle :0) Yesterday we had a scan with the specialist who discovered and diagnosed all of Zac's heart defects in August. It's been about 6 weeks since the day we heard the horrible news. As you may remember, the defects she discovered that day in "that" heart were so complex ... not only one defect, but multiple! There was the issue of only 1 chamber; only seeing one major valve from the heart to the lungs where there must be 2 and then the complication of not being able to clearly see the arch of the aorta. What she saw of it, as well as  several other specialists, it looked too narrow and underdeveloped from what we could understand. When we came back from that first scan and spoke with our friend and paediatrician ... this was one of his biggest concerns. The aortic arch is so important in the functioning of the heart!  So before we went for the...

The Day of Promise has Arrived

Precious friends ... The big day has finally arrived! Come 4pm today we will be taken into theater to meet our precious miracle son! Our hearts are filled with the Promises of our Beloved Jesus. This post is our hearts response of praise and adoration to Him because He has faithfully carried us through each day with "heart peace", strength, hope, faith and incredible love. He has coached us in how to stand leaning into His Almighty power, wisdom and goodness and has taken all the fear out of this journey. Today our hearts are soooooo excited. It is the day of promise ... Zac's appointed day to shine forth His Glory. As a family we want to thank each and every person and family who has lavished their love, encouragement and prayers to stand with us in looking to Jesus, the Great Physician in knitting Zac's inward parts intricately and wholly in my womb. We will keep you posted as we rejoice in great expectation at witnessing God's amazing love in action! Our eyes...
