Don't you think the word "pause" is a great word? Sometimes I wish there was a pause button on life. Our DVD player won't stay paused for a long time, just a couple of minutes. That's all I need. Can I just pause life for two minutes? Let me pause … to think?
I did that today when I found this note in a book I was reading when I was pregnant with Neal. I wrote this note for myself just days after finding out I was pregnant. Yes, within the first week, I was going to IV therapy. Being pregnant sure explained explained a lot. I continued IV therapy for most of my pregnancy and was put home health care and eventually bed rest for the last few months.
Seeing this note not only reminded me of why we're happy with two children, but how grateful and lucky I am to have them. I'm so glad my Father in Heaven has trusted me (us) with our two sweeties.
Added later: I just ran across this great quote.
"Learn to pause … or nothing worthwhile will catch up to you" unknown.
