Tyson really liked this story I'm about to tell, so I thought I better document it.
A couple of weeks ago I was driving the kids somewhere, and my seat belt would not go around my belly. As I started wondering what happened overnight and how I was going to get through 6 more weeks of pregnancy, I was relieved to look to my left and see my seat belt stuck in the door.
This baby is active. She responds when you touch my belly, especially when Ty touches it. The kids are ready for her to come. Jackie told me that she is so excited because she will get to go to grandmas house. Chloe is also riding low and giving me varicose vein pains. Starting this week, I'm forced to wear the compression hose. Ty said they make my legs look skinnier and my belly look smaller. I'm sure the do, since they are super tight. I got them fitted, so I know they are the right size. I guess they have to be tight to compress the vein. I've been humbled to have my mom help with the kids and the house, and my neighbor took Jackie to school yesterday. I'm realizing that with the pains of life, I learn a lot more than when life is pain free. I've learned to pray and see what I should be learning and what I should change. I've been taking it easy the last few days and reading the book "Thou shalt Prosper"- about Jewish customs and finances. I already thought I was taking it easy, but now I really am, and I'm thinking about motherhood and this new baby and where she is going to take our family. I'm grateful for this experience.
