Uncreated One (By Chris Tomlin) Holy Uncreated One Your beauty fills the skies But the glory of Your majesty Is the mercy in Your eyes Worthy Uncreated One From heaven to earth come down You laid aside Your royalty To wear the sinner’s crown O Great God, be glorified Our lives laid down Yours magnified O Great God, be lifted high There is none like You Jesus, Savior, God’s own Son Risen, reigning Lord Sustainer of the universe By the power of Your word Chorus: O Great God, be glorified Our lives laid down Yours magnified O Great God, be lifted high There is none like You There is none like You There is none like You When we see Your Matchless face In speechless awe we’ll stand there we’ll bow with grateful hearts Unto the great I Am O Great God, be glorified Our lives laid down Yours magnified O Great God, be lifted high There is none like You There is none... like You There is none like You
Dear Kayla, (a name both Daddy and Mummy wish you will like) It thrills Mummy and Daddy that you've been growing and kicking inside, especially more recently. We are grateful that you are healthy and active. Sometimes, I try to imagine seeing you come out from me, all red and cute - I know that marks a special beginning - of life with Kayla. You know that Daddy really loves you? I know from his daily singing to you (you must have heard), his tapping on my tummy so that you'd respond. His anxious looks when I come back home late or look really tired. And I'm so glad he's your Daddy. I fear myself becoming a bad Mummy to you at times. Cos I may misunderstand you, the crying you might make, the naughty things you could do. But I also want to be the best Mummy I can be for you. As my tummy keeps growing bigger and bigger, I know the day draws nearer and nearer. I'd muster my greatest courage and smile to see you through into this world, so...
Im into the 31st week. Which means around 6-7 weeks to full term (of 37 weeks). The third trimester is proving to be challenging in some ways. I never expected I'd grow to be sensitive to smells- cigarette, feng you, cooked food packets on train. It makes me breathless and nauseas. Tired-ness took on a different meaning from the first trimester. Of course it was exhausting then and nothing like that has ever hit me. This few weeks I've been getting the lethargy, the short spans of energy bursts after which I'm busted for the day. It's been harder to get up, to fall into sleep, to sit or walk for long. The tummy gets more pronounced, heavier and I'm slower. Usually zonked, I dont respond as much. My mind is active but it doesn't necessarily translate to expressions or words these days. Somehow there is a desire to get this over and done with- not in a frustrated way but just naturally hoping to see the baby I've been carrying for the past month...
