the acceptable big belly.
This is the Amos family. I love them. We all have dream of moving to lands far away someday. They have one more child on the way, not pictured here; adoption! During the shoot I often asked Lisa to get in positions just not feasible for her, which made us both laugh a lot. It reminded me of this summer when I watched my friend Becca trying to surf while pregnant. While I was not the only concerned one, I didn’t even have time to object before she quickly found out how she was not going to make that comfortable, but as she got off her husband’s board she certainly still thought it was totally possible.
Becca has since had her baby and recently posted this on facebook:
‘ i prayed for a breast pump, and mom’s friend gave her one. it arrives later this week, but mom said its the exact model and brand i wanted!!
Breast pump posts aren’t all that common I imagine, but that is not why this one had me laughing. About 15 years ago I prayed for a breast pump too, with Becca. It was a fundraiser for a group of us venturing off to Europe. We had a decent amount of sales, but Justin, Becca’s brother, thought it would be good for us to pray that specific things would be sold. So when we got around to praying the breast pump to sell, we all let out a good uncomfortable teenage giggle. But you guessed it, about 20 minutes later a young lady picks it up, inspects it and buys it. Now our giggles over a breast pump turned into all out laughter and complete joy over this sale. Obviously, God answers prayers.
This great memory has obviously stuck with both Becca and I. Now we know even more surely, God answers prayers about breast pumps;)
