What are we thankful for?

December 4th, 2008

First and foremost, we are thankful for number 4! That’s right, crazy at it is, the P family will have an addition in June bringing the total head count to four children. I’ve had a lot of morning sickness this time around, well, it’s more like all day sickness. I had my first ultrasound a few weeks ago which confirmed there is only one bean this time. Whew. I have two corpus luteum cysts which means there could have been two babies……. The second trimester is just around the corner and hopefully that will mean an easing of the constant nausea and yuckies.

Four. That means B and I will each be outnumber two to one. Not so good tactically. Neither of us ever expected to have a big family. It just wasn’t in the plans when we were both single and living our own lives. But now that it is happening we are both ready to meet the challenge and we are thrilled with our little blessings. Well, sometimes I just want to go hide in a corner, or go rent a villa in Italy (by myself), but B’s ever present optimism gives me strength in my time of need :)

I’m thankful for my husband and my children. We are all healthy and happy and life is good. With such craziness in the world I am thankful for my little pocket of home and community. I have a million things to be thankful for, but I think I’ll just post some pictures and leave it at that.
