The clock is ticking

It's Sunday evening and I'm sitting on the couch with swollen ankles. My poor husband has been down with a stomach bug all day and we didn't make it to church. I fear that these last few weeks of being alone after he returns to work, are going to be a challenge for me. He was very much here in person today but wasn't any sort of physical help. I've got 7 weeks to go being pregnant. Feels like an eternity. 

I wonder how much bigger I'll get. 

My back grinds and my sciatic is in full swing. I really sympathize with people who deal with this on a constant basis. It's miserable. 

I've received the kids homeschool curriculum. I'm not panicking yet and I'm sure I should be. Who wouldn't with a stack of teacher manuals this big:

Maybe because I've gotten a confirmation that I really should be doing this, is the reason for my calmness. I just wish I could be calm in all aspects of my life. 

Beautiful girls. Crazy that very soon we will add another one to the photo.
