Not Nice Spice
My poor husband had to endure me whipping out this tragic excuse of a cell phone for nearly nine months. It was already an old iPhone by anyone’s standard. The case I had initially purchased had been chewed on and beaten to a pulp by toddlers. It survived just fine without a protective case for ages though, even with an occasional drop here and there. Well, until this past spring when it slipped right out of my back pocket and landed face down on my in-laws bathroom floor. It was completely shattered. Yet, somehow all the pieces were still in place. Thankfully my mother in-law had packing tape handy, and I placed it over the cracks only to discover it still worked!
It’s only fitting that I post the birth story of Jaci and her eldest, Jude. I’m over here procrastinating, busying myself with last minute baby #3 preparations, and dealing with endless life hiccups. Even though it’s a new year, our dilemmas still exist just as they had in the year before. The same can be said of motherhood. There are aspects of parenting that are so multifaceted that they leave you with highs and lows, and perplexed all at the same time. Dealing with how and when you got pregnant, how you carried and until when, and when and how you delivered—there’s always unspoken pressures.
