Children are a reward from GOD

Yesterday in church we listened to a message about how God's hands knit us together in our mothers womb. We watched a quick emotionally charged video that took us through conception to birth and how the baby changes each week. I realized when the video got to 16 weeks that I was doing the "hard breathing so as to not sob" kind of crying. I looked at my friend Joline and realized that she was also crying. There is a connection between pregnant women...hormones. When I hugged our friend Jen yesterday, I laughed that our bellies were the first things to touch and I thought about our children playing together in a few short months. She is having a girl. Joline is having a boy. I wonder what we are going to be blessed with, what little person GOD has knit perfectly together in my womb. Will they have red hair and freckles and croon Annie tunes like me? Will they have a dimple in their chin and be heroic like their dad? Will they be bad at math, like the both of us? Who is the person that we will meet?
