MIA

So I’ve been MIA. I’ve decided this is just the way life will be as a pastor’s wife. Sometimes there are things at church that occupy virtually all my time. Such has been the case the last 2 weeks. I think hope we’re coming out of it…but we never know.

In the meantime, I’ve gotten some great comments and emails from all of you. I’m sorry I have not been able to address each one. I have the great idea that I will respond to each comment and email I receive not only because it’s good blog etiquette (so they tell me) but mainly because I am very honored that many of you take the time to respond to me and my whatnot.

There have been a lot of changes around here lately. It’s been over 3 years since I’ve been in this state of pregnancy and I have no idea how I forgot how it is, but now I find myself thinking, “Oh yeah, I remember the backaches.” and “Oh yeah, I remember not being able to sleep at night.” and “Oh yeah, I should probably enjoy the calm before the storm of the newborn stage.”

I’m not complaining, since I know it all comes with the territory and it just makes the arrival of a new baby that much more special and rewarding, but I’m constantly amused at how different it is the third time around—I think it’s safe to say the novelty of pregnancy has worn off. I wonder what it would be like with a fourth, fifth, etc…not that I’m necessarily planning on being in that position anytime soon.

    Well, I can tell you, the fourth and fifth pregnancies are just as unique as the first three are. You would think you would run out of symptoms, and combinations of them by then, but you don’t.

    Amy, I have REALLY enjoyed reading your blog! I am an Air Force chaplains wife, (We are actually just about to move to our first official assignment) and mother of two wonderful boys.
    I have ALWAYS said that I am NOT the typical pastors wife and it’s refreshing to know that there are others who are able to be honest about who they really are and that they don’t have it all figured out (I know I don’t)
    Thanks for being so transparent!
