Just when things seemed to be going well, something was suspiciously absent. There were all sorts of colours around me, but no red.
In its place, there were changes and fatigue. Extreme fatigue. The kind that only happened to me when…
For someone who doesn’t really care for red, I did find myself missing it. But the red never came. Two very prominent and bright lines helped to explain why…
PREGNANT!!!!!!!!
Me! **blink, blink** I even forced myself to repeat it aloud to myself. A few times!
I was in a daze for a hot minute as I processed this news. To say I was shocked would be a gross understatement. I was stunned speechless, really.
Then I was scared terrified. How to tell my Hubby? How to tell my mother?! How to tell everyone else?!?! Would they react okay to this news?? Layers and layers of doubt came rushing at me, faster and more violently than a wave of nausea.
But God!
He calmed my storms and pushed out the doubts. He never asked me to understand nor explain every detail of my life. I barely had answers for myself, let alone for anyone else. The only step I needed to take was one forward in faith. As long as I was willing to trust Him, He would handle everything else.
