Patience...

Patience, above all else, is what is needed right now.

Do not let anxiousness or frustration take over.

Hold to your inner peace.

Reclaim your identity.

Trust your higher wisdom.

Look to the grander vision.

Do not agitate for a decision right now, nor seek an immediate solution.

Do not wish for an end to things as they are.

That end will come.

Yet let it arrive naturally.

Do not push the river.

Wait...

The Right Time is at hand.




















I will see your face soon, my baby love.

Lesson Learned

Yesterday when I got home from work, I decided it would be a great idea to do some house work...lots of house work. I suppose the nesting instinct has kicked in - full swing. It didn't matter that I was thoroughly exhausted and 'enjoying' lots of Braxton Hicks contractions....I wanted to CLEAN!!!!

I took the Christmas decorations down and got them packed up, cleaned the kitchen, folded laundry, re-arranged furniture in the living room, and much to Isaiah's dismay, vacuumed. He has a strong dislike for the vacuum, to put it mildly. He cries and cries. It's rather pathetic. So I decided to console some of his horror I would carry him while I vacuumed. It went really well. I was so proud of myself. My back didn't even hurt. You'd think after vacuuming for 20 minutes while 35 weeks pregnant and carrying around a 25 lbs toddler your body would be looking for a lawyer to sue you for damages. But noooo, I was good to go.

Then I sat down to rest for a bit. When I tried to get up my right hip popped in protest. Fail. So I spent the evening attempting to get dinner ready with the right side of my body begging to be detached and left on a heating pad.

Note to self: Make a list of things you want to get done and work on it over a WEEK instead of over 4 hours.

Do not judge the journey by the path you're now on

Do not judge the journey by the path you're now on. Like Driving cross-country, you can't possibly know in advance if or where you may envounter detours, hairpin turns, or passing cars passing with noses and what not pressed to the window. Moreover, little, if any, of the scenery you travel through will remotely resemble the destination you have in mind. yet neither the "constellations" you see nor the unexpected maneuvers you take will ever mean you aren't headed exactly where you want to go, moving as swiftly as possible, getting closer every flipping day.

Road Trip!
