An Ah Ha Moment

Well last night was not a good night. I didn't fall asleep until 2 am! I was blowing my nose every 30 seconds and tossing and turning when I wasn't blowing! So every night I listen to Dr. Joy Brown on 930 am and last night was a good show! First let me set the stage...I found out that 2 of my friends are pregnant. One for the first time and the other for the 3rd time. the later of the 2 friends has had 1 miscarriage in the past so she knows how I feel. They are both due in June. For the first time since we have been "planning our family" I didn't feel jealous...OK just a little...who am I kidding! I am trilled for both...really! OK, back to Dr. Joy Brown. This woman called up and was very up set. She and her husband have been trying for 6 years and at Thanksgiving her sister in law announces that her and her husband are excepting a baby and it only took one month to try. Well...I think we all know how that feels, whether it was/is a sister in law, friend or someone we know...she was upset! She was saying things like...she was wearing maternity clothes and she is on 10 weeks! How dare she! This is what the Dr. said "SHE IS NOT HAVING YOUR BABY, SO WHAT DO YOU CARE!" ah ha...I SAID...I NEVER saw it that way! Dr. Joy kept saying..."your baby is out there how ever you get it, but SHE IS NOT HAVING YOUR BABY!" I get it now! For how many years and how any times have we had our hearts broken by hearing someone is pregnant and it isn't us! I finally get it now. Dr Joy went on to tell her she needs to tell her sister in law how she feels...about the jealousey and that she may seem like she is not happy but just understand what she is going thru! I thought that was great...here this woman is not ony going to help herself but help her sister in law try to understnad what she is feeling and that it is not the sister in law fault! DING DONG...HELLO...SHE COULD HAVE BEEN TALKING TO ME! See there was a reason why I couldn't fall asleep! So ladies...lets be happy when we hear our friends and family are pregnant...THEY ARE NOT HAVING OUR BABY! Hugs and god besss!
