- How was I supposed to write anything about me or my life when we weren't telling anyone yet about our huge, two-year anticipated secret of being pregnant? I just couldn't find any words, so I didn't write anything.
- I have been doing relatively well emotionally since getting pregnant. I was so worried about this a few months ago when we started trying again, and so far, it has been really good. Yay! (Therefore, I haven't had much to write in terms of why this blog is here.)
- I have been feeling unusually discouraged about writing. It just feels like everything I write is dumb, not helpful, or annoying. I have gone back to read the sweet messages people have sent to me about how the things I have written have helped them, so I have decided that I will continue writing, even though it is often a scary thing to put myself out there so openly.
- I have been incredibly sick this pregnancy, and most of my days are spent just trying to get through the day. It's kind of funny, because the result of being physically sick has been almost the same as being emotionally sick, laying in bed for hours during the day trying to find the motivation to do anything. I'm sure hoping this part gets better soon!
In the coming days, I will have lots to share, including some very inspiring stories for my "That We Might Have Joy" project. But for now, check out this collage of the JOYful things I found or that people sent pictures of this month in the beautiful celebration of Christmas.
