Luckily God doesn't compare us to anyone else and He doesn't ask us to do it by ourselves. We have each other and, most importantly, we have HIM! I neglect too many of my duties each day and all I can do the next morning is pray that He helps me a little bit more.

Ahem.<br /><br />And maternity tights? I don't remember ever wearing any. The last pregnancy, I was in to leggings. But if there's ever a 4th pregnancy, you can bet I'll be looking into those tights - unless, of course, it was summer.
