These two columns, or articles intrigued or struck a cord with me the other day when they were in our local news paper. I put them in here just in case you want to read them. It may be because I am patiently, for the most part, awaiting the arrival of our next child(hopefully one month!). I think the fact that it has been quite some time since we have had a baby, especially a new born, in our home. I feel like I am going through a brief refresher course, though I know it will be nothing compared to when the baby is actually here. I think I have forgotten a lot. Maybe that is a good thing. Our Neighbors, who just had a baby keep telling me it will be like riding a bike and not to worry. I don't think I am worrying, just remembering what a change it will be to life right now.
Another thing some what on the same subject, and one of the ways I can tell our baby will be here soon is by the month. Yes I know August is before September, and always has been. I am talking about our ward. From July, which actually turned out to be June, because one baby was early, to December there is a baby due every month. It was going to be two in July but ended up June, and one in July, and the one for this month is coming any day, and then it is our turn!
I think it is rather funny,because our Relief Society President who is fairly new to the ward made a comment about there not being to many babies in Relief Society on Sundays. I think everyone is making up for that even though no one planned it that way.
Enough of my ranting. Enjoy the articles if you decide to read them!
