A truly beautiful reflection!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Natalie.
DeleteThis is so true! I felt so queasy my whole last pregnancy and felt so bad for basically not participating in anything. If it happens again I will remember this reflection:)
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard to remember in the moment, isn't it?
DeleteWhat a beautiful reflection!! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Michelle!
DeleteMary this is beautiful and hits the guilty spot in my heart as I waddle in third trimester woes. Thank you for writing this. You should submit it to Catholic mom or something. I'm teary eyed and whether it's hormones or not, I love this post.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. That is so kind of you to say…maybe I will!
DeleteI apologize if this comment shows up about 3 times later...my internet connection keeps dropping!
ReplyDeleteI've been mostly on bedrest for a few weeks and feeling like the worst mom ever for not being able to do all the things I want to do with my older kids (not to mention the house and everything else!!) This is just what I needed to read. Thank you!!
Oh, I'm so sorry you have to be on bed rest! That must be so hard. What a good work you are doing and what a witness it can be to your other children, though, don't forget that. I'm so glad my words were helpful. Prayers for you and your family and may this be a time of grace for all of you.
DeleteThank you for this. I've read it before, but it means so much more at 39 weeks pregnant.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad. You're so very very close and doing such a good work <3
