Life's Realizations Come Anytime, Anyplace

I have hit week 11 of pregnancy. I am still nauseous, but there has been a little movement on the other end. Yeah, for little miracles. The greater miracle and realization today is that I am blessed with two wonderful Green guys in my life already. Although my husband has trouble understanding what I'm going through and why I'm so gross everyday, he has been so much more understanding through this pregnancy. As we watch our Hanker grow, we are still in complete awe of God and the things he blesses our lives with, mostly our son. I began the search for a Mother's Day Out program today for Hank. I feel like during the pregnancy it would help both Hank and me to have a little time to ourselves. It was truly an eye-opening experience...more to write about that later. My thoughts were, I will never need a break from my son so badly that I will place him somewhere I don't trust. Bern and I have worked so hard for two years with Henry, not to have him slowly unraveled at the hands of total strangers. Like I said...more to say on that subject later. What I realized is how much I love those in my life. I know it's a silly time for that realization, but it's those moments you embrace, enjoy, yell, scream, and then hug your child and lather him with kisses. I don't know your predicament in life or if you have anyone around you, but please know that life is worth it for yourself and I'm sure for someone else in your life. Even when your belly hurts and you can't see straight from no sleep, there is something worth living for and holding onto...your family. I love these guys. I hate that I'm sick, but at the end of the exhaustion and stomach churning and body transformation...I get a beautiful blessing from God, another baby. Hugs and Kisses!
