Bedrest

For friends who ask what bedrest is like . . .

• Me laying on the couch in the living room, mid- to hi-80’s inside, since it’s 99 outside.
• 4-year-old coloring quietly at the dining room table.
• 3-year-old laughing hysterically trying to lift my shirt to “blow on your tummy” to make me laugh (his contagious laughter alone is enough to send me into labor).
• 1-year-old hitting me on the head with her brother’s dinosaur, saying “RAWHRR! RAWHRRR!”
