While everyone is writing away on blogs and facebook about everything they are thankful for, I must say I am thankful for the things I am learning because it is covering a heck of a lot in my life right now. My life is slightly busy and chaotic right now.
* The Savior of the World overcame life and death, and through Him, we can overcome our greatest trials. Through Him, our weaknesses can be made into strengths. I knew this already, or at least, I thought I did, but I am really knowing it now.
* No matter how old you are, you will always need your mother. And boy do I need her. My mom has been at my house a LOT lately helping, in every possible way. She's pretty much at my house every day.
* Sometimes you need to just suck it up and allow other people to serve you. I have been the beneficiary of a lot of service lately, and I cannot begin to express my gratitude for the sacrifices of others.
* Coconut water is great if you are dehydrated. Skip the gatorade.
and last but not least,
* There is a new life growing inside of me. Yes, baby #4. It is exciting, but I am taking things just one day at a time, and my excitement is shadowed by my morning sickness at the moment. I have little desire to eat, which makes things worse. I haven't experience morning sickness with such intensity before (hence all of the help I am currently receiving). I pretty much lay on the couch all day so I don't aggravate my nausea. And I am more than a little bit stressed out with future plans (saving money, buying a house, etc....preferably before this baby makes an appearance).
But I am grateful. So very, very grateful.

Congrats Sarah!! Sorry I don't comment much around here, I read your blog frequently but I always forget to say a little something. I can honestly say I know how you feel I am expecting as well and oh my the nausea can be unbearable at times...
Yay for new babies! Boo for morning sickness! I'm sure she'll be worth it. ;)
Congratulations! I hope you feel better soon. That is really no fun, especially when you have other little ones to take care of. so sorry. Glad you are getting lots of help!
Congratulations! I hear morning sickness is worse with girls... maybe you'll get one this time! But either way, that baby will be just as beautiful as your others! I hope you start to feel better soon!
