Pregnancy Thoughts

I don't think I love being pregnant quite as much as some, especially near the end now that all I can think about is how much I hurt everywhere. It definitely has it's good parts ... and bad. One con is that I have to wait for most of a year for him to arrive. Why can't we be more like dogs? (When was the last time you heard a woman say that?) I think I'd be more willing to be pregnant if it didn't take so long, just not as many (peter says I don't think you'd be okay with six babies at once). I guess with something so small and precious to the Lord and ourselves we need that much time for the parents and the baby to both mentally and physically prepare for this long journey on earth. I guess I think even though both of my pregnancy's have been on completely different ends of the spectrum, it is such a small sacrifice for such a big blessing from the Lord. Seeing Melynn and knowing how much I love her it absolutely makes it worth it.
