Fertile ground

A lady at bible study today asked me when I was due. I told her and she replied, "You look farther along!" Oh the things people say.
I said, "thank you". Someone else might have had a different response.

Just this morning I looked in the mirror at a belly that has grown much this week. I absolutely love being 40 and fertile, 40 and pregnant. I may be feeling it a little more and earlier the second time around, and with a few more years under my belt. But, for so long, I thought something was wrong with my body, that I was infertile for a reason and I was less than a woman.

Botox, tanning, crazy diets, plastic surgery - forget them all. Nothing beats being pregnant at 40 to help you feel young.
40 and fertile...I love it.

Thank you, Lord, for another day.
