I am happy its Monday.
After having my dad and his wife staying with us over the holidays, I am looking forward to getting things back to normal at our house. No more fighting to stay up late to entertain, no more going out every day to the city, etc. Finally some peace and quiet.
Oh wait...peace and quiet? No way not for me. Instead of celebrating 6 weeks today, I am arguing with my mother in a "text war", who is upset that I did not call her this weekend while my dad was visiting (mind you, I see him once a year and he lives in Cali, my mom lives ten minutes away). She has been throwing herself a pity party all morning that I did not call her and pay attention to her while my dad was here visiting. Honestly, this kind of stress is not good for this pregnancy. I already lost one pregnancy, and you think she would give a shit to just leave me be and enjoy the day? My heart is racing, and I can't deal with this right now.
There is a pile of work sitting next to me, yet I have to try to calm myself down to even get through even a bit of it.
Little baby: please grow, please hang on through this. I swear to you, I will never hurt you like my parents have hurt me. I will never guilt you, or make you feel terrible for living your life. I will give you everything I have, and put my heart and soul into your happiness, and make sure you have everything you need, or the space you need when you are older to grow and live your life. I won't put you down, or make you feel like less than you are. I promise you this; your dad and I will be there for you through everything. We will be your light in times of darkness, and will share in your joy and comfort you in times of sorrow, we will not abandon you.
Just...grow.
