a very special announcement...

As I mentioned in my last post, I've had to take a small step back from blogging in recent weeks. A busy schedule is something I've gotten very used to, but on top of our constant travel and busy life, there's a little something else that's caused me to be a bit quieter around here. Those of you who have seen me in person lately know I've been keeping a not-so-small secret for the past few months...

We are so thrilled to be welcoming baby # 2, due in early March! It's been such a sweet time for us as a family to dream about our future with another precious little one, and I have loved being able to slowly tell friends and family the news as we've seen them in person. At 17 weeks, I just couldn't keep it to myself any longer—not that this growing belly will let me (and yes, there's just one in there)! In a few weeks we'll have an appointment to find out if miss Lorelei will be getting a brother or sister, and we're all beyond excited about what's to come.

As is normal, my first trimester was a very nauseous, very tired one, but I am praising God for good health so far for me and baby. I'm still feeling quite tired, but God has been providing for every need as we continue to travel and perform. Of course, we would appreciate your prayers for health and safety as we continue to travel throughout the pregnancy. Thank you to those of you who have already shared in our excitement, I'm looking forward to sharing the blessed moments ahead with all of you!
