Heaven Scent on Lucy's Due Date

Yes, it's Lucy's due date, and no, she is not here yet. Hopefully this isn't a sign that she is a procrastinator because Will and I are so opposite that! Either way, we are still trying to patiently wait for her, but it is getting difficult. We just can't wait to meet her. We feel like we have been waiting for the sun to shine for so long now, and once Lucy is here, oh how the sun will shine! In my last post I talked about the timing of things, and how God has a plan. Well, since that last post, things have begun lining up for Will and I, and I am much more at peace with our living situation and Lucy's arrival in the midst of it. To top off our feelings of peace, we walked outside this morning and the first of our tulips had bloomed. What made this significant for us, is that we have every color you could imagine ready to bloom, and it was only the yellow ones that bloomed today. Luke has always been tied to yellow tulips (they were the only flowers we had at his funeral, and on occasion, Will and I will catch 'whiffs' of yellow tulips out of the blue and we know that this is heaven's scent, sent to us by our son) and Will and I took that as a sign that Luke is with us, and is sending his love to help welcome his baby sister into the world. How fitting that Lucy should arrive at the same time our yellow tulips bloomed! Okay Lucy - you better hurry before the rain that is predicted in the forecast levels the yellow tulips!
