In recent days a few things have occurred to me... so I thought I would share some of my random, yet somewhat related, thoughts from this past week.
- I'm about to have a baby... really, it's true. So far I've just been pregnant, but every once and a while it occurs to me that, sooner than later, I will have a newborn to care for.
- I'm about to have three children.
- I'm not sure how I feel about that.
- It sounds hard.
- I'm not patient enough with the two I already have.
- When the new baby is the age Sweet Pea is now, I'll have a 6 1/2 year old!
- Maybe I can do this after all.
- I'm about to have even less time than I think I have now.
Anyone else have these sorts of realizations with 2 1/2 weeks to go???
I found that my third just fell into place like she had always been here. As a mother, I was much more relaxed since I had already been a mother...twice. I bet you'll be the same way.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was pregnant with my third, I went into labor 2 1/2 weeks early so it was almost too late for those kinds of feelings. BUT I do know what you are talking about. My first two kids were only 3 1/2 and 2 and the thought of another was overwhelming, but it was easier than expected. Nothing is as difficult as the first! Of course, the Lord is your strength!
