DAY 277 -- Pregnant

In nine months, we are hoping we will be ready to go on a mission.  It is sort of like being pregnant I guess.  In nine months, we will be delivered from our financial goals, our challenge of being too overweight, etc.  So in nine months, the time for a little sperm to grow to be ready to be delivered, we are going to be ready to pack our bags and leave on a mission.

I wonder if that is why my grand children think I am pregnant.  I wonder if it is a sign.  So many people are always looking for a sign to confirm a decision, or a sign to eliminate a decision.  One movie actor said, "Perhaps the absence of a sign is a sign." 

I don't know much about it, other than my daughter just went through it, but perhaps come June we will have a "C" section to deliver our mission call.  Would that mean an easy mission or a hard mission?  What would that sign mean?  Some people have babies right at home and do not bother with going to the hospital.  I don't think that we should consider that, for that is not what is usually accept as the norm.  Besides, that would probably mean we would go to some place where there wasn't any people and we would be teaching the animals or cannibals. 

Well, in truth, if women can go through discomfort, morning sickness, not being able to sleep, feeling "not attractive" and such, or just plain aching all the time, then perhaps Bonnie and I can endure the coming nine months and deliver a mission call.  Whether we have a C-section, or natural delivery of this call, we will endure, learn, go without sleep, feel unattractive, and live through nine months of waiting.  Anything is worth a mission call.
