The attendant from the Gas station we viewed from our apartment window came over and knocked on our door telling us we had a telephone call over at his station. For the life of me, I could never figure out how my husband’s mother who lived in
Bea as my husband called his mother, and her husband wanted to let us know that they were moving back to California and would be arriving in about a month or so.
After chatting for awhile, I decided to let Bea know our news. "Bob and I wanted to let you know that I am pregnant; we are going to have a baby."
My mother-in-law looked at me and then softly said, “So am I.”
That is how our children were going to have an uncle very close to their own age.
There are times in life when we want to say “So am I.”
Especially when a friend tells us they are now a Christian.
“So am I.”
“So am I.”
Can you think of times you would also like to say those words?

I never thought about it, but those really are some powerful words. What a great story. I know you're blessed to share your stories... So am I...
That is magic how wonderful... Praise God from whom all blessing flow~ He knew all our needs and supplies them. Much love sent.
That was definitely worth a good chuckle. I've seen it happen a number of times when the babies between a mother and daughter were coming. My sister had that happen, actually. A neat story. Thanks. -- OH, and I definitely remember the wall-bed. So few people younger than us know about them. Had one in an apartment in Tacoma very shortly after I had married and just then, in that apt., discovered I was pregnant. You and I have much in common!! :-)
Does it ever bring us close together when we can share such wonderful experiences, like pregnancy and salvation! Oh how I long to hear any one of my names for salvation on my long prayer list call me and say "So am I a Christian!!!!"
Wow, Hazel, that is powerful. Here's some things I want to say so I am to:
I am following hard after God.
Jesus is my Everything.
I'm hiding my heart in Jesus.
Great post!
Wow! What a story! Congrats on the pregancies together.
