From the mouth of babes...
This morning, as I was getting Georgia ready for the day, she looked me squarely in the eyes and said, "Mom, I talked to God and He told me that you are pregnant. You are going to have a baby. You don't have to wait anymore." She said it so matter of fact and with such clarity I had to just stare at her for a minute. Georgia knows a minscule amount about my struggle to have a second child. We've talked before about how we are waiting to see if God will bless us with another baby. But our discussions have been one or two sentences max. Her comment today really surprised me. There was a huge part of me that wanted to take her message at face value. I really wish it were true. My response was something along the lines of "wouldn't that be wonderful." I think Georgia is beginnig to think about siblings and desire one. I do not know if she was motivated by her ponderings on siblings or if she actually heard a message from God. I wouldn't put it past God to deliver a message through a child. Just thought I'd put it here to document in case it does happen! :) I will say that there is some science to beliefs and their effects on biology. I am about to read a book called The Biology of Belief. It deals with this very topic and is based on a very new branch of science called epigenetics. Epigenetics asserts that thoughts not genetics determine your overall health. It is not a "name it and claim it" type of idea. Epigenetics has to do with electrical currents that run through the brain and the effect they have on biology. I can't wait to read it!
