It’s Election Day, and so much has been said about this bizarre and distasteful election that I have no interest in reading or saying anything else about it. Now, we wait.
In the meantime, I think a little bit of lighter fare is in order. To that end, I’ve composed a list for you of things I’ve cried about while pregnant at some point over the last three years:
Things I’ve cried about while pregnant
- I thought we had bed bugs because my legs were itchy
- I killed a mouse
- The movie Terms of Endearment was too sad
- The Sound of Music’s number “The Sound of Music” was too good
- A song from the movie Pitch Perfect was too good
- A beautiful elegy during the funeral service of a Christian friend
- I got a feeling one of my friends doesn’t like me as much as I like her
- My husband’s haircut that I gave him
- A sermon about God’s grace from Romans
- A Janet Oake book about a mail-order bride
- Several spots in the “Addy” American Girl books series
- My daughter fell asleep and I missed her
- My daughter woke up in the middle of the night again
- I couldn’t get the door to the back shed open after trying for ten minutes
- I experienced an overwhelming feeling of well-being
- I had an argument with my husband over a serious family matter
- My husband gave me a gift card for a pedicure
- My daughter fell four feet off of my bed onto her face
- My daughter suddenly wouldn’t eat beans
- The hymn “It is well with my Soul”
- A Yo-yo Ma best of CD
- A children’s book from the Dolly Parton book club about a childless old bear who finds a young orphan bear in the woods and takes care of him
- My daughter’s eyelashes
Things I fully expect to cry about while pregnant
- Election results
