I remember when I went to the doctor and was told I was pregnant with our second child. Normally, that would be a fond memory for expecting mommies. But that appointment actually wasn’t. It was right after the doctor shared this news that she also advised I terminate the pregnancy. See, I had been in and out of the hospital with my first pregnancy so often with pneumonia, that DJ ended up being born 9 weeks premature. Knowing that my lung condition hadn’t changed, my doctor explained I was too high-risk to go forward with another pregnancy & that not going forward would be the safer route…
This photo here is that boy, seven years later. And this weekend, Andy had the privilege of helping Pastor Fred with the announcements on stage. You see, God knew Andy before Andy was born. God wove him together in my tummy. And for the last seven years, God has walked with Andy in a journey of salvation, baptism, and now, serving with his little talent. God LOVES ALL His kids…and love looks out. And I am humbled & encouraged at the way God has looked out for Andy, from before Andy was even born. I hope you know you are God’s kid too. And He loves you. And He’s got you.
Wow… Amazing story .. God is awesome!!!

Oh Heather! He did a great job this weekend. He’s a miracle, as are all babies. I was pregnant at 14 and given the same “choice”. Even though I was so young and terrified, I made the better choice to keep my baby. And in one month I’ll get to watch her graduate from High School. I’m forever grateful that God chose me to be her mom. We made it through the tough times together. Thank you for sharing this post. God bless your boys.

I have always been so proud of you and the decision you made that day. What would the world be like without Andy.
