Eating Crow Two Years Later

Wow. I just came across this article, written a little over two years ago for my MOMMY! Ezine.

Things change. I mean, really change.

How could I have known? How could I have foreseen what my life would be like two short years later? All the things I was delighting in, gloating over, crowing about. They've just...

No. There are no words. You simply have to read it yourself to see what I'm talking about.

Then, come on back and leave your comments. Laugh at me. Chortle. Shake your head. Be amused. You're allowed to.

Meanwhile, I'm just going to slink on over to the nearest dark corner with my pregnant belly in tow and...cower.

"I no longer have to worry about young men in grocery stores, gas stations, and the post office mistaking my friendliness for flirtation. They will automatically assume that I'm old enough to be their mother and won't give me another thought."

Yep, when you're wrong you're REALLY wrong. :-)

I liked #13. Obviously you have no hang-ups about sex! It's the birth control that you need to work on! ;-)

Honestly, I don't see the big deal. Your life took a different direction. That's how God works!! Our idea of the right path is not always the one God chooses for us.
I think it's great that you are so enthusiastic about being a Mommy again. You are blessed. xo

OMGosh Jill! I just returned home from a driving vacation to find this bright little email and it SO made my day! I love it! I'm sure not laughing at you, I'm laughing with you. If we can't take this life with grace and humor, then I don't suppose we have much left, do we? What I wouldn't do for a nice tea and a chat with you about now... much love, AK Jamie
