Next on My To-Do: A Ladylike Laugh.

I've repeatedly prayed for several things all my life. Some of which include the following:

1.    Longer legs.
2.    Bigger boobs.
3.    Three or four inches more in height.
4.    A flatter tummy.
5.    More books.
6.    A monster metabolism.
7.    Perfect eyesight.
8.    A ladylike laugh.
9.    A baby.
10.  The power to pause time.

I've learned to let go of some wishes (like becoming taller), while some wishes have more or less defined my very existence. I've been praying for the grace to let go of some desires so that I can defer to God's plans for me.

Now, I think I have proven that the world operates on reverse psychology...Or God has finally thought I would be ready for this. Well. Let's hope so.

World: It has finally happened. I'm finally pregnant. Gloriously, wonderfully, amazingly pregnant. Now, when someone tells me I got fat, I can say with much aplomb, "It's because I'm pregnant, you ninkampoop!"

Oh, can anything else be more felicitous than this!?!?!

Oh, and by the way, I think God has thrown in #2 just for being a loyal customer. :-) Hurray.

(And now to work on that ladylike laugh...)
