After my birthday, it was hard to celebrate Mother’s Day. I didn’t know what I could do that would “top” Liz’s plans. I also don’t think that’s necessarily the right way to look at celebrations; they are not a quid pro quo, they are not equal, etc. But the pressure was still on.
A couple weeks before Mother’s Day, I uploaded a picture and ordered a frame from Hatchcraft. I was excited about it. Simple, but eloquent. I thought it said everything about Liz as a Mother. Unfortunately, I did not realize they had just started the service, and my frame would not be ready for a couple weeks. This meant I would not have anything ready for Liz on Mother’s Day. Eek!
. Little Bit and Wesley seem to realize that Liz is pregnant. Whenever they have a chance, they step on her stomach and jump on her. Watching this baby grow and Liz go through all the ups and downs is amazing, but I feel somewhat at a loss when there is so much I cannot do to ease the experience. I figure as long as I keep her giant cup of ice water full and keep the dogs from pouncing on the baby, we are on the right track.
So, on Thursday, April 17, 2009, Liz woke up frustrated that her time had not yet come. She took a pregnancy test which claimed she was pregnant. I happened to be working at home that morning, and heard the annoyed growl. Assuming the stick was broken, Liz came into my office, “This thing says I’m pregnant!”
