Pay it Forward
You know, I watched the movie 'Pay it Forward' when I was pretty young. I don't know that i ever thought much into it....until now! Being pregnant with quads as been a whole different experience all together. I never imagined that i'd get to be a mother to multiples!! I'm SO happy and blessed. Since movng back from England, I've become a member of a few different MOM groups. I never expected to get anything from it, but boy have I! The one thing I've learned, is that these other moms are always there for you...to answer questions, or just to lean on for support! Well, the other day I spoke with another mom for the first time on the phone... I had emailed her previously to let her know that I was interested in buying the nursery furniture that she was selling. After meeting Howard, she called my hospital room, and explained to me how she wanted us to HAVE the furniture. Words can't describe how shocked/blessed I felt when she told me that! It lifted such a burden off of our shoulders .....Needless to say, having 6 kids can be financially straining =) Moreso though, than the "material" gifts that we've been given...I've been given the gift of friendship, and for that i'll be forever thankful. Howard and I are going to Pay it Forward in the future! Thank you God for the gift of friendship....

The blog looks great! My family isn't on facebook so they haven't been able to watch you. I will email them the link and they are going to love it. Once the babies come, you won't have much time, buy try to at least upload pictures. That is what I do when I am out of time and my family is pestering me.

ReplyDeleteHi Nicole~
ReplyDeleteI am sure you will experience many more unexpected blessings in your lifetime and I have no doubt you WILL remember these things and they will shape you and that you will bless someone else.
I am glad you are meeting and connecting with mothers who have multiples. As an adoptive mommy, I've been blessed to meet many mothers walking a similar journey before, during, and after. It is so wonderful to have these ladies to share things with.
Glad you entered my giveaway!!!
Hope you're having a good Sunday.
xoxo~
