A son!!! I am carrying my son!

The ultrasound appointment could have gone more smoothly. But it was still picture perfect. I had my loving husband beside me, my mother and my dear friend Ami as well. It was wonderful! The ultrasound tech went through showing us what each screenshot she took was of. And then she got to his legs and pointed them both out to us, and that's when I knew. I asked her if the baby was a boy, and she confirmed it. I couldn't do anything but hold Ryan's hand and look at my beautiful baby boy on the screen, tears rolled gently down my face as I watched. When we were all done, I got off the table, I wrapped my arms around Ami and we wept.As I held my dear friend, it was all I could do but weep and thank the Lord for this miracle gift of a son.

Ryan, Ami, myself and I'm sure others have been praying for this child. We've also been asking the Lord that he give us a son. God has been so gracious through the waiting! Between Ryan and I we both had had 3 different dreams that our child was a boy leading up to the ultrasound. 

And so, with great joy, I anxiously await my beautiful son's arrival. Jonathan James Prickett you have such a wonderful namesake! You are loved my son, by our Creator, your father and I, your auntie Ami, your Godparents, your Grandparents, your aunts, uncles, cousins, and your church family too!
