Life is...David's First Blog
"It's been really hard the last few weeks. It's been really hard, because we haven't been able to go out of the house. We haven't been able to go to church at daytime. We haven't been to go to church at nighttime. We haven't been able to go to the rec center pool. It's been really hard."

-Rachel has extreme temper tantrums
-I cry
When both Rachel and David had several hard days in a row Chris decided to make something special for them to pass the time. They made an incubator & we are now taking care of 18 chicken eggs, hoping a few will hatch into baby chicks in 21 days!
Keep going! You can do this!

Nancy, I did exactly the same thing, only I had been wearing my 8th grade jeans until I had my baby at almost 30. I had hoped to wear those 8th grade jeans forever.
ReplyDeleteNow, it's what is happening to my figure at 80--a much bigger downer. Thank you. Your words still apply.
