Perspective

SO

I feel humongous. If there was a word that means "bigger than humongous" then I would use it!

I am really uncomfortable 80% of the day.

As of Wednesday, I am swollen. My ankles are swollen. My fingers are swollen and my face is swollen and puffy.

I'm waking up multiples times a night and not sleeping very well. Which, needless to say, leaves me very tired all the time.

I am REALLY ready to have Bryson in my arms instead of my belly.

Well, my mom called me today after church and asked how I was feeling. And I told her. She was really sweet and sympathetic and then said,

"At least you don't have to ride 70 miles into Bethlehem on a donkey  like Mary did!" :-)

That changed my perspective for sure!
