Taking It Easy

No, I'm not singing an Eagles song, I'm under doctor's orders to "take it easy".  I have 8 weeks to go to my due date.  And I don't think I'll make it that far.  I don't know how to take it easy, rest, or be still, so the next two months are going to be hard on me.  I've taken up knitting to keep me busy.    My amazing, awesome husband has been taking up my slack by cooking, cleaning, and house chores just to get me off my feet. He's even been doing my "honey do" list items.  This weekend he built me a garden box and shoveled dirt into it for my spring veggie garden.  I love how Michael includes our sons into everything he does.  He pulled out the kiddie shovels and taught them how to shovel dirt.  He also allowed them to practice hammering while building the box.  And of course they loved every second of helping Daddy.

I often wonder, "Did I marry Superman?"  He's a super man and dad, and I can't believe how blessed I am to have him.

Here's a funny picture of our boys wearing their safety goggles and their backpacks as they play with trains. It cracked me up how funny they looked.
