Blessed

I won't deny that there are days (moments) when I forget how blessed I am. But I am truly blessed to be Sherwood's mommy and Aaron's wife. I was reminded of this today when I caught a bit of a show on TLC about ectopic pregnancies.

The show caught my attention because the title was "Pregnant for 46 years." It was about a woman who had an ectopic pregnancy that stayed in her body for 46 years! The baby did not survive, sadly, but it is a miracle that the woman did survive. So often with ectopic pregnancies the woman's body rejects the fetus and it can often kill both the mom and the baby if not treated right away.

As I was watching the show I was once again grateful for my little munchkin who was laying on the couch next to me and talking away. How amazing that I was able to carry such a healthy little boy and that he is able to share his life with me!
