God can be in charge of everything?

I visited a friend this week who was pregnant and she shared her story.

She and her husband trust the Lord to direct their parenting, their marrige, homeschooling, finances, but hadn't trusted God to determine the number of children they would have. The decided they probably should trust Him in ALL areas of their life. Immediately after a reversal surgery, she was pregnant. Baby number 3 arrived this week.

I'm jealous. I completely thought I was over baby fever until I talked to her about this issue. My outlook has been changing on several topics as of late like parenting, schooling, modesty and femininity. I suppose God will work on my husband if He chooses and Jim's receptive. Until then, I'll pray God will give me wisdom, patience, and a submissive heart to Him and my husband. I hope I will be receptive to all that the Lord wants to teach me.
