My best friend's phone call

It's been a while since I've blogged. This last month has been insanely busy. It's only gonna get busier.
So yesterday I received a phone call from my best friend. She lives abroad. We talked for about 1/2 an hour, before she let out the following words.."I'm pregnant". I can't say I was surprised because she has also struggled for years to carry a baby. She has had several miscarriages and finally she is over four months pregnant. I was actually surprised by the emotions that I felt. I felt a little sting from the words at first. But then I felt this amazing feeling of how happy I was for her. God had given her a blessing. She had always remained positive and had faith that this would eventually happen for her. She is so positive that God will not leave me without a family of my own as well. It's incredible how strong she has been. She gave me hope yesterday.
So here's the wierd thing....two weeks ago I had a dream that her and I were walking down a path that led to a beautiful lake...she was holding a newborn baby boy. In my dream I asked her who's baby is that? And she said "it's my baby". We got to the lake and went swimming.
It turns out she had her ultrasound and they told her she is having a baby boy!

  1. It's so great that your best friend could give you hope. Sometimes we need someone else to hope for us while we can't for ourselves.

  2. baby dreams are sweet...sometimes i wonder and amazed at dreams altogether! many years ago I kept having a dream..same dream of a talk dark hair handsome man to be my hubby and i've found him...i've also had recurring dreams of our baby with dark hair and blue eyes...makes me wonder. Friends who give us hope are so wonderful! I also have a friend/co-worker who had several miscarriages before her first pregnancy and also trying for her second pregnancy and she totally understands how i feel. her mom also struggled to conceive her too. Hugs sending out to you! hopefully will see you soon!
