Well, this morning I woke up sick again. No surprise really, I have been sick for the past 22 weeks. Yep, all day sick. Thank goodness for Zofran, modern medicine is literally a dear friend of mine. I just have to make sure my body will let it stay in me long enough to work. The medicine makes me feel human. My bed actually gets made from time to time:) This pregnancy is really similar to with our 1st little dude, I would, however, be really grateful for the sickness part to end before 9 months. But considering it didn't with our little dude, I am not counting my chickens before they hatch.:)
I will, however, give myself a gold star for the day because i actually exercised a feat almost impossible on other days.
But regardless of being sick, I am soooo very grateful to be a mother and to be having this second little one come join our family. I am so very grateful my Heavenly Father is giving me this opportunity, because I know not everyone gets the opportunity to even have one little one. And I am so very grateful for a son and husband who are so willing to help me "feel better."
As for life with my little family, it is beginning to get a little crazier:) Bryan will be officially done with grad school at the beginning of August ( Please insert the Hallelujah Chorus here!) I can't wait to have a husband who is just working! No homework, tests, papers, late nights and early mornings of studying! More family dinners! He truly is Superman!
With that change has begun an onslaught of looking for a better job in all ways possible:) We are eager to start a new chapter, that doesn't include school. I am so grateful that Heavenly Father blesses us with the ability to do all the crazy, hectic things that have been and continue to be placed into our lives. When I look back on my day, I just sit in wonder that everything was made possible.
I am hoping that we will know where we will be going in the next few months before the baby comes. That would be very helpful for my sometimes OCD personality.
Besides the sickness factor for me, life has been wonderful. I don't have anything to complain about. I am married to a wonderful man and i have the kindest and most ingenious little son a mom could ask for. I have had to take things a lot slower, but I am okay with that. After serving as RS president for a year, when slow comes I have learned to relish it. The important things are all that really matter. I am beginning to feel old, as I see my youngest sister about to start her senior year this fall, but also excited as I see my 19 year old sister only have a few more months of chemo left and then she will be done!
We have been through a whirlwind these past couple of years, but I am so grateful for the lessons learned and experiences wrought ( the good and the bad.)
