Be Grateful

Okay, so this is me trying so hard to be grateful when I feel terrible. I am two months pregnant and I look and feel awful. I keep trying to remind myself that this part ends and I will be fine. I also remind myself that I have done this four times before and not only have I lived through it but the outcome has been worth it all four times. So, I am choosing to be grateful. There are a lot of people close to me that are not thrilled about this pregnancy. People who believe that four children was more than enough and I need to have my head examined. But, I am thankful for the people who have been supportive and excited about this new life. John and the children are ecstatic which helps. They are also amazingly helpful to me in so many ways. I always joke that I like to be the "helper" not the "helpee" because I have a difficult time accepting help. This is just one of the ways that Heavenly Father is surely teaching me. Thanks to all of you who blog and let me into your lives. And remember...no matter what your trials are today...find a way to be grateful.
