Yesterday was perfect--right up until I fell asleep without writing my blessing. Usually, I would be furious with myself for not getting it done. However, this baby has served as a much needed reminder that I can only do all I can do. I did a good bit yesterday too-the clothes got washed, I started cleaning out my closet, cleaned out Jilly's cage, and watched the Dawgs win. But the best part of my day was the few minutes I had all to myself in the morning.
Blessing #130 September 4, 2010
I was the first one up yesterday. I had a few minutes to sit at the dining table, sip hot tea, and relish in the thought that I was doing exactly what I was supposed to. That thought brings a great deal of peace with it--and when I am pregnant or nursing a baby, regardless of the work, fatigue, anxiety about money, etc, I enjoy that feeling more than at other times in my life. It is a remarkable result of millions of years of evolution that pregnancy and nursing bring such contentment. I believe it is also a miracle.
