These sudden changes in temperature always amaze me. It's as if Mother Nature experiences the same hormonal mood swings that all women do. The thought alone makes me ache for all of the women in my life. The closer this child comes, the closer I want them. I want to pioneer technology and bring my grandmothers back to life to sit by my side. I want my mother and sister next to them. I want every woman who helped rear me to magically habitat my little street. I am a horribly selfish person.
When the husband came home from class, he rubbed his cold nose against my cheek and wrapped his arms around my middle. He put his head on my shoulder and whispered, "I missed the two of you." The gesture made me want to keep him too. Luckily, that's exactly the arrangement we made, so I don't feel as selfish in that respect.
I will gladly habitat on your street. Love you!
ReplyDeleteI have been thinking about making a little treat for the baby...can you email me your address and if you have a name for him? If you don't want to share the name but don't mind sending me the initial of his first name (cause i am pretty sure it's a boy, right?), that would be awesome, too.
ReplyDeleteYeah, um, our heater has been on for the past few mornings when we woke up. Brrrrr...but I think it must be colder there then here.
And your thoughts aren't selfish, just fantastic. I wish the same thing often.
You almost brought a tear to my eye. I am so glad "the husband" is taking care of you. He is a lucky man and that little bun in your oven is lucky to have a mother who loves him so much. Enjoy being pregnant....I promise it does not last forever.
