My grateful list

I’m trying to keep my mind in a positive frame today. I slept really, really bad last night. In fact, I think I went to bed rested much more than when I woke up! But still, I’m trying to have a good attitude today. So I’m thinking of positive things. Here’s what I’ve come up with so far:

1. Tomorrow I will be 1 week away from being pregnant for 11 months. The elephant is pregnant for 23 months. I’m grateful I’m not an elephant.

2. I don’t have the doctors pressuring me to have an induction.

3. My husband is home on vacation and is being so wonderfully supportive to me!

4. I spend so much time in the bathroom, that I’ve come to realize that I hate it. It has Pepto Bismol pink flowers all over it. Yuck! This has renewed my desire to give it a make-over.

5. When labor does happen (people keep telling me that it will. Are they right?), I’m not afraid of it. I’m looking forward to it. The pain and all. I’ll embrace it with all my gusto.

6. I’m grateful for the lessons that the Lord has taught me through all this. They have been important, needful, and good. Even though my flesh has desired to play hooky from this class, I am glad I’m in it and hopefully I’m getting a passing grade. I will be just as grateful and glad when class is dismissed.

Okay, so with some of these I’m reaching a bit. But at least I’m reaching….
