Great Is Thy Faithfulness!

Below are the words to my most favorite hymn in all the world. They are just fitting for this time in my life, as I am awaiting daily for the birth of my first Granddaughter.

1. Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father;
There is no shadow of turning with Thee.
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not;
As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.
Refrain:
Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided
Great is Thy Faithfulness, Lord unto me.
2. Summer and winter and spring-time and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above
join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.
Refrain
3. Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thy own dear presence to cheer and to guide,
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!
Refrain

Melody has been "nervous Nellie" for 7 months--and I did what she wanted. She did not want me to blog this pregnancy--she did not want me to take her picture--she did not get a hair cut, or go to the dentist. She did everything the total opposite from her pregnancy with sweet Cooper. I did not buy anything for this baby, until she had her first shower on November 24th. I went 3 days before then and bought the mattress for the crib, and some other items at BabiesRUs. I thought I was in heaven when I walked in that baby store.

Now little Miss Melody is 35 weeks and 2 days--and she got a haircut today! She has been on bedrest for weeks now--and was taken off of bedrest on Wednesday of this week. But she is taking it easy. She still would like for this precious little girl to bake for about 2 more weeks at least! She gets her terbutaline pump taken off next week, and she will get her last progesterone shot on Thursday, the 13th. Then, the doctor says that they will let nature take it's course. This little girl is ALSO BREECH--so at this point, they are talking a section. Here is a picture of Melody that was taken at her first shower.
