Today is almost done, and I have mourned my baby very little. I did my mourning at other times. Today I celebrated the children I have with me, and the man I love. I needed to celebrate today. Enough said.

I homeschool our boys, love to read almost all written words and have been challenged by the military life for 18 years. Right now my faulty human body is demanding a lot of attention. One day at a time, learning as much as possible every day and remembering to look for JOY when other things threaten to overwhelm.

Due Date
Today was supposed to be my due date. Surprisingly, it really wasn't bad at all. I remembered it this morning, because when I first found out I was pregnant, Carrie commented that my due date was the same day as a wedding her kids were going to be in. So, since the wedding was today, that reminded me that today was my due date. I really didn't feel like I should have been having a baby today though. I already went through that, several weeks ago, and today just felt like.... well, it just felt like today. Just like any other day. I commented to Andy about it being my due date this morning. I think I was starting to feel a little mopey. He was not sympathetic at all, which was the absolute best thing for me. It was much easier to be a little grumpy with him for a few minutes, then to be mopey all day. So, even though he slightly annoyed me, I am really grateful to him for being "uncaring" about it. The thought stuck around all day, and struck at random moments, but it wasn't a heavy thought, and it didn't weigh me down. God is so faithful.

Well...even if it worked out to be the best thing for him to be unsympathetic, I can still be mad at him for it!!!! MEN!
Anyway, I noticed another friend on your blogroll celebrated a special day on the 12th...a wedding anniversary...lots of celebrating going on!
I am glad it was a good day for you!
I am glad you had a pretty good day overall. There are times when I still think about your little Angel in Heaven. I hope you have a great week by the way. Oh, and I would love to get together when you come to town. I am here. I start back to work next Monday, but I am available both this and next weekend (as far as I know) and in the afternoons. I can leave work as early as 3:30. I hope to see you soon. I miss you dearly!
