Justin Was Right

Lucky we have a swing set now cause it's been a long (shall I say that again) long week! I was told last Tuesday to stay off my feet and to destress my life. I guess you can call it that "bedrest" word that I've been trying to avoid. Let's just say that it's really hard going from very busy to doing nothing at all.

I'm trying to fill my time with wonderful books I've wanted to read for a long time and multipling my scripture reading. I'm extra glad that I recorded conference and Women's Conference--that's been very motivating. I even had a friend bring me cross-stitching to do. In case you wondered though, there is never anything on TV worth watching during the day--except maybe "Clean House" or "House Hunters" but you can only watch so much of that before you want to get up and do something about your own house.

I'm learning very quickly that I need help and I'm so grateful for everyone that has come and gone with kids and meals. I really couldn't do it without all of you! I'll never be able to thank you enough. Just know that when this baby is born you can count on me for anything.

All those days I kept thinking in the back of my mind that I wish I could just lay in bed all day, I take back. I'd much rather be busy and out making a difference then sitting around being bored. But, I'm trying to make the best out of this situation. It's interesting how the tables turn and we're taught yet another lesson!

I'll just picture a mount of knowledge, strength, and stores of energy being poured into me and be ready to go when this precious child finally lays safe in my arms. Until then, thank you for all your help!
