Prayers needed...

My little sister Lindsay is pregnant with what is believed to be identical twin boys. She has done an amazing job with all that has been put on her plate these past 3 years. After suffering a miscarriage, she was blessed to find out (nearly 7 months ago) that she was pregnant. Then a few months later we were even more surprised to find out that she was having two boys and they seem to be identical! Her and the hubby have picked out the perfect names...Hudson Leon and Koen Alexander and now we are anxiously awaiting the boys. She has researched every twin site out there and registered for the most efficient baby gear available for a mother of multiples. Our entire family is bursting with joy...

Tonight Lin is in the hospital at 27 weeks in labor. I can relate to the feelings of excitement, worry, and downright terror she is experiencing as I went into labor with my first baby at 27 weeks. Thankfully, they were able to stop my contractions. She is in the hospital fighting for the same thing right now. Each baby is just over 2 pounds and both need to "cook" just a little bit longer. The message I've received is that the contractions have slowed but her cervix is softened so there is some concern still. They are going to keep her for 2 days for certain and possibly longer if necessary. If there is anything I've learned in my short life, it is the power of prayer. Please keep Lindsay, Alex, Koen and Hudson in your prayers and ask God to watch over and protect them. Only He knows the master plan and we can only pray that he keeps the boys healthy and Lin safe. Thanks to everyone.
