Sabbatical<\/strong>
\nStarting tomorrow morning, I am going to be taking a little break from the blogosphere for at least one week, maybe for two. I need to catch up on some projects, and it will be easier to avoid procrastination if I set a “no blogging, period!” rule for myself. (I will be checking email, in case someone needs get in touch with me to chastise me for miscopying a cookie recipe or or for whatever reason.)
\nI also want to humbly beg the assistance of St. Blog’s with another, more personal project.
\nA couple of weeks ago, when Sparki shared with us the happy news of her pregnancy<\/a>, she also included a very gracious nod to women of St Blog’s who desired to conceive.
\nI am one of those women. I have occasionally alluded to the fact that I have polycystic ovarian syndrome, a hormonal disorder that makes conception difficult. When we were married, my husband and I dreamed of having a small army of children. We went through three years of infertility before Hambet was conceived. Now Hambet is two and a half. He needs brothers and sisters. I would be so grateful for prayers for our family, that God might grant us again the gift of life.
\n(A few weeks ago, Hambet was pointing out a baby he saw at the mall. I asked him, “Would you like a baby?” He seemed interested, so I asked again: “Would you like a baby in our family? A baby brother or sister?” He announced, quite firmly, “Baby sister!” So that is his intention. Hambet is exactly two and a half today.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
