Emotional

I don’t know why, but Ihave been extra emotional lately… like today. Only today really.

I have been thinking about how much I have been complaining in my heart due to my current circumstances and I should not be. I have also been feeling weighed down due to life going on around me and the thought of how I might be neglecting my husband. I am really not neglecting him but I can’t do anything in the field of food or cooking, and well, if you know Ryan, he likes to eat so this is hard for me- having to watch him make his own lunches and dinners and snacks…

If you catch me being negative or complain-y, please tell me to stop and remind me that this is just a season and I should find the joy in everyday. This is a verse that I have taped to my computer, it helps me when I tend to get, shall we say, whiny… “This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. ” Psalm 118:24   Everyday is a new day, there will be no other like it, even if it is stinky, it happens for a reason, God (our creator) made this day. So, REJOICE DANG IT!   Ha-Ha, anyway…

What really got me going today was when I was doing my normal blogy blog search I came across this really cute Mother’s Day video made for Sarah Short by her husband. I started balling. The only thing I kept thinking was: “Oh my gosh, this is going to be me one day, I can’t believe it, boohoohooo”. I was really tempted to call Ryan and remind him that I am pregnant and cry some more but I got a hold of myself before I did that. Sometimes he thinks I am crazy.  

I learned something today. Do you know what a kumquat is? Yeah, I didn’t either.  Apparently, Baby Price is the size of a kumquat this week. You can google it if you are interested but as far as I gathered, it is in the orange family but smaller and oval shaped. We can also say that Baby is the size of a prune if you would rather use a name that you understand, though, kumquat sounds cooler. I will get back to posting the size updates and the “how baby is growing” info once I get the gestational age results back from my Doctor. I don’t want to have to mislead everyone again.

* Mom is out of hospital and went back to work today, she is still not completely better so pray for complete healing of her body. Dad is still out of work and My grandfather  had a stroke on Friday night so if you could continue to lift up our family in prayer, we would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

PS. The smells lingering from the kitchen here at work are going to make me barf! Ugh.
