Well, we have had a lot going on around here. A little bit of refining you could say. This verse is a great verse for what has been up in the Kerbel house lately:
'I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call on my name and I will answer them; I will say, "They are my people," and they will say, "The LORD is our God." --Zechariah 13:9b
I love how the Lord uses the circumstances in our lives to draw us closer to Him.
Well, at the Beginning of September I found out I was expecting baby #3. I even took those pics of the pee stick and all! Things were great for about 2 months, and when I was 8 weeks pregnant I miscarried.
This is the first miscarriage for us, so we didn't really know how to think or feel. I know that God is the giver of life, so I'm feeling at peace with everything. So this is pretty much where we are now! I am so blessed with the 2 God has given us! Also...
If you would join us in prayer (on a side note) for Carson. We went to the dermatologist today where they had to biopsy a mole on his scalp. The Dr. would not say much, but said that it had the 2 red flags he looks for-it was irregular in shape/color and was also bigger than 6 mm. We will know the results in 4 days, so please pray for a benign result!! All he would say is that he couldn't tell from looking at it. His tone when speaking about it caused more concern for me than anything he said. I don't feel comfortable about it's placement if it does come back bad-right on his head! not good for a lot of reasons. Anyhow, please pray for him!
Thanks for still reading if you are-I know looking at pictures is so much more fun!!! Hopefully we will have some good news soon:) Love you all!!

I just wanted to tell you how sad I was to read that you had a miscarriage. Last month I had three close friends who went through that pain, I am so glad God has comforted you. Hope everything is well~
