We packed up the whole family to go watch Alex play fastball tonight. Ashley didn't just moan, she full out cried, for 90% of the evening. Hope sputtered and gurgled, but I thought she was doing okay. Brodie had fun playing with the other kids. Then the sun went down and the mosquitoes attacked! What was I thinking??? Ashley cried the whole ride home, and then Hope started puking... A LOT!
If I'm going to complain...I might as well go the whole distance. I'm 38 weeks pregnant and for the first time, my back and hips are aching like crazy. What was I thinking? I can't take the girls out for two full days on my own. Crazy. Well, obviously I am going NOWHERE now that Hope is puking. As most of you know, she will now start a series of violent vomitting episodes during which we will see her stop peeing from lack of fluids, start seizing almost constantly from lack of meds (because nothing stays down), and eventually the vomitt will be bloody from constant puking. And then I'll be depressed from watching it happen all over again.

And here I was thinking you had it made getting your sod down before the rains came! Hang in there and thanks for posting. You're amazing!
Jolene, you have every right to 'unload".It is just a reminder to us, that we need to keep praying.You just keep looking up.Do you have any idea what an inspiration your posts are to your readers, whether you have good days or bad? Will be sending extra prayers up for you to see you through this again. Love John and Helen
Oh Jolene! Try to take some deep breaths. I really Hope gets through her episode quickly and that you find some time to relax. The end of a pregnancy is always difficult and you have every right to complain. Even when we go through life trying to be grateful for everything, it can still get pretty overwhelming. Sending love, strength, and prayers your way,
Glad you shared, Jolene. It helps us all know what to pray about for you!
