“We worship one God in Trinity and Trinity in Unity, neither confusing the persons nor dividing the substance, For the Father is one person, the Son is another and the Holy Spirit is another.“
“But the Godhead of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit is one; the glory equal, the majesty coeternal.”

On Thursday Clara turned TWO!
We had a Very Hungry Caterpillar birthday party to celebrate because, well, she’s our very hungry little caterpillar.

Lily’s first VBS evening program went better for her than I thought. She had to sit right next to the teacher’s aid and Clara was allowed to sit with her too so I think that helped her not get too scared to be in front of everyone but unfortunately, though she knew some of the songs, she didn’t sing a word.
She stood up one time with all the kiddos but soon made her pouty face and sat the rest of the time.
Then toward the end of the show she began to fall asleep. I’d been afraid this might happen since this thing started right at the girls’ bed time. Oh well!
See! She did know at least ONE song!

Rummaging through little baby girl clothing today I found this sweater and bonnet. It was given to me at a shower the church gave us before Lily Ruth was born. The woman who made it passed away a couple years ago at the age of 100. Interestingly, she was the Step-Grandmother of the doctor that delivered Gerhardt and will deliver this baby. Gotta love small town life!
Anyway, I’m in my 26th week now and all seems to be going well. It is getting harder to bend over. I find my feet having to get wider apart to reach the floor and it’s been so lovely to have “The Flux” shoot up into my throat every time I do this. TMI? Sorry! But this could be our hairiest baby yet!
Breathing isn’t easy and I’ve had some dizzy spells. My doctor told me to try taking Claritin for a while to see if that helps my breathing, dizziness and exhaustion. I KNOW these are very common during pregnancy without a possible allergy but they seem to be coming at a time I usually don’t struggle with them and I have some allergy symptoms so, I’ll try it. Otherwise not much is getting done around this house for the next 14 weeks!
14 weeks! Is that all?! This baby is sneaking up on us. The summer will fly by and she’ll be here before we know it. We’re finally getting close to settling on a name. I’m letting one stew right now so we’ll see if it sticks.
And I can see baby kicking now too which is fun. (No, not feet or anything…creepy.) I love feeling all the bumping going on in there. She’s definitely growing!
