Weary

Today I am weary. . . tuckered out. . . exhausted.  

I'm not sure how much longer I can keep playing basketball in the morning.  I love it, but I simply cannot keep up with ladies anymore.  I huff and I puff and about the only things that is going to be blown down is me.  

Being pregnant is hard.  It is good.  It is right.  It is godly.  But it is hard.  Everyone thinks that because we have a big family it comes easy.  I hear, "Oh you're so good at it."  "Oh, you're perfect for it."  "Oh, you make it look so easy." 

My sister Kari, just glows.  She likes being pregnant.  She's good at it.  

I don't even radiate a dull glimmer.  Nothing.  Nada.   Easy?  Hardly.  My pregnancies are good but hard.  And with this one, I am tired.  And I've got a long, long, long way to go.

  2. It is hard work...you think you're just making dinner, but your body is also knitting together an ear or an internal organ for a new human being at the same time! It is so amazing, and so exhausting. Let pregnancy give you the gift of making yourself more of a priority---lots of good food, good sleep while you can, and less stress if possible. Thanks for sharing the honest truth---it is hard.
