Oh the rain and the things i want to do. I often feel like there are not enough hours in the day. There are just so many projects, crafts, books,etc to involve myself in and then i want to just lay around and enjoy the empty hours. But i cannot. My mind like most mother's i would guess is always spinning.
Today i want to get things ready for a silk screening project for my girl and her friend tomorrow, I want to cook something fabulous,(i'm not sure what yet), I want to start this great knitting project i have in mind, i want to go on an epic run in this west coast weather we are having, rain, rain, rain. Oh but there is more! The garden is finally growing due to the rain. I have to make a halter cozy for Moses our fat fat pony.
My daughter has been struggling with our fat pony for quite some time now. She has not been able to keep a running conversation up with him at all. She had a break through day recently where he actually let her ride him and jump him over a small cross rail. AMAZING!
I have been thinking today and many other days as well about due dates. I have been noticing an very strong tendency lately. So many mom's want to speed up their due dates. This is no new phenomenon i know but it just seems so big right now. Every day the topic comes up even well before due dates..."what can i do to get things going?" What's the rush? I can understand the desire to meet you little one but if all is well and healthy what's the hurry? Why do we always need to manage things? I find the more we manage the more likely we are to mess things up and complicate the whole process.
And now on to gardening and running and fixing the adirondack chairs hooray!
I've never understood why women want to "rush" their due dates either. Let the little ones cook for as long as they need to! Mine went to 42+ weeks...as you well know!
