Some solid marital advice from John Piper.
"So yes, we husbands need to hear things we're blind to—like reminders that she likes ice, and that the kid needs orange juice not grapefruit juice—and we need to then lay it down and stop sulking and being self-pitying and go lead."
Love that challenge!

Say hello to Bridget Ann!
Psalm 139:14 - I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Your works, And my soul knows it very well.
Heidi & I went to her 20 week appointment yesterday, and we were blessed to find out we're having a little girl!
Introducing Bridget Ann Knapp!
It looks like she's a thumb sucker. :-) She's measuring in the 59 percentile, so if she keeps growing at this rate she'll be approximately 8lbs at birth. Heidi thinks that sounds plenty big. :-) We continue to appreciate your prayers and praises for a healthy little girl!
Genesis 30:22
Then God remembered Rachel, and God gave heed to her and opened her womb.
Psalm 71:6
By You I have been sustained from my birth;You are He who took me from my mother's womb;My praise is continually of You.
Psalm 127:3
Behold, children are a gift of the LORD,The fruit of the womb is a reward.
Psalm 139:13
For You formed my inward parts;You wove me in my mother's womb.
Isaiah 44:24
Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, and the one who formed you from the womb,"I, the LORD, am the maker of all things, Stretching out the heavens by MyselfAnd spreading out the earth all alone,
We serve an omnipotent and sovereign creator!
