9/9/09...

The number nine has taken on a new meaning for me and my DH. Things started to change for us, when we found out that the day we would test for our pregnancy was on 9/9/09. I started to research the number nine and found many interesting facts about the number. Here are just a few of the facts that I found:

• "The number nine has been used to describe the perfect movement of God." We can't think of a more perfect movement than that of a healthy baby.

• "Nine is not yet the full or complete, number ten, but it does mark the ending." We have been praying that it means the end of infertility.

• "The Ordained, fullness of God's plan." We believe that God has planned for us to be parents.

• "There are nine fruits of the Holy Spirit listed in the book of Galatians 5:22-23: love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance." These nine fruits reminds us of our journey to become parents because we have experienced each and everyone of these fruits at one time or another.

Stand in prayer and faith with us that 9/9/09 will change our lives forever!
