Probably sounds crazy....but

I think it finally hit me in the shower last night....that wow...I'm pregnant. I told myself that its time to let Go and let God. He has given me my hearts desire and I've been too scared and too uptight to even enjoy what I've been praying for, for almost 6 years. Its time...7 months left that I'm sure will fly by. Yesterday as I spent the entire day with my pants unbuttoned at work because I couldn't close them (well okay I knew before I left the house I couldn't button them, however since DH had ironed them for me and I didn't feel like ironing anything else...I kept them on....LOL!)...reminded me that hey something really is going on in there.

Felicia said...: I know how things like that are, just takes a second to sink in. I am so happy for your blessing and am glad that you can now enjoy the rest of your pregnancy. Sounds like you may have a trip for maternity clothes in the near future! Enjoy your blessings as you both deserve them. Have you told any of your family yet?; May 21, 2009 at 9:51 PM
Soapchick said...: Woohoo, you really are pregnant Tashida! I'm so excited for you. Enjoy this time.; May 21, 2009 at 10:14 PM
Mon said...: It will really really fly by ! I now feel like I havent enjoyed anything yet !!!

As for the pants, check out the bella bands. I got mine on ebay and i am still wearing my pre-pregnancy pants at almost 34 weeks and I dont think that will change. You will save tons of money using those !! Tehy basically hold up your unbottoned pants up while supporting your tummy and make you feel very comfortable. That was teh best investment I made; May 22, 2009 at 2:19 AM
Michele said...: Yes, you are pregnant! It's wonderful news! :)

I second the bella band. Good investment. Do the real one, though, and not the motherhood maternity one... that one was a ripoff (imo). Of course, I love loose, elastic maternity pants, too, lol. My yoga pants are my faves!; May 22, 2009 at 7:39 AM
Anonymous said...: Here is a cheaper version of the bella band... use a plain old rubber band. Loop it through the button hole and then around the button, it will keep the two together under long shirts and it has elastic give... I did this with my third child and was able to wear my regular jeans until about 5 months. Congrats!! by the way.; May 22, 2009 at 10:53 AM

Wait by Russell Kelfer

Desperately, helplessly, longingly, I cried;
Quietly, patiently, lovingly, God replied.
I pled and I wept for a clue to my fate . . .
And the Master so gently said, "Wait."
"Wait? you say wait?" my indignant reply.
"Lord, I need answers, I need to know why!
Is your hand shortened? Or have you not heard?
By faith I have asked, and I'm claiming your Word."
"My future and all to which I relate
Hangs in the balance, and you tell me to wait?
I'm needing a 'yes', a go-ahead sign,
Or even a 'no' to which I can resign."
"You promised, dear Lord, that if we believe,
We need but to ask, and we shall receive.
And Lord I've been asking, and this is my cry:
I'm weary of asking! I need a reply."
Then quietly, softly, I learned of my fate,
As my Master replied again, "Wait."
So I slumped in my chair, defeated and taut,
And grumbled to God, "So, I'm waiting for what?"
He seemed then to kneel, and His eyes met with mine . . .
and He tenderly said, "I could give you a sign.
I could shake the heavens and darken the sun.
I could raise the dead and cause mountains to run."
"I could give all you seek and pleased you would be.
You'd have what you want, but you wouldn't know Me.
You'd not know the depth of my love for each saint.
You'd not know the power that I give to the faint."
"You'd not learn to see through clouds of despair;
You'd not learn to trust just by knowing I'm there.
You'd not know the joy of resting in Me
When darkness and silence are all you can see."
"You'd never experience the fullness of love
When the peace of My spirit descends like a dove.
You would know that I give, and I save, for a start,
But you'd not know the depth of the beat of My heart."
"The glow of my comfort late into the night,
The faith that I give when you walk without sight.
The depth that's beyond getting just what you ask
From an infinite God who makes what you have last."
"You'd never know, should your pain quickly flee,
What it means that My grace is sufficient for thee.
Yes, your dearest dreams overnight would come true,
But, oh, the loss, if you missed what I'm doing in you."
"So, be silent, my child, and in time you will see
That the greatest of gifts is to truly know me.
And though often My answers seem terribly late,
My most precious answer of all is still . . . Wait."
