It was so ironic! Yesterday I had a pregnancy hormone episode where I was raging mad......for no reason. It was directed at Mike, though he had done nothing wrong, and I knew it. I tried to control my temper while talking to him. I knew I was irrational, but he knew I was mad. We were shopping and I told him I'd go
wait in the check out line so he could take the boys to the car. He quickly agreed.:) While waiting in line, I was just fuming! Really, it was out of control. The lady in front of me asked me about my pregnancy - you know, "what are you having?" "when are you due?", etc. I politely answered her questions though I was in no mood to chat. And then she said, "Well, you are just glowing. You look so happy." I smiled and thanked her while thinking, "What!?" Though my siblings, mom, dad, Mike, and my boys may disagree, apparently, I hide my emotions well! Or maybe she was being sarcastic! But if she was, she was the sweetest little sarcastic lady I have met!

This made me laugh. I also am not one to hide my emotions very well.
The other day I was having one of those irrational overwhelmed stressed moments and Dylan looked at me and sweetly asked, "mom, are you frustrated?" I calmed down and just said "Yes, Dylan."
And yes when your pregnant. Everybody likes to talk to you. Which can be okay and sometimes not so much :)
Looks are deceiving huh? hahah..I bet you did look glowing. That was nice of her to say and I hope it sorta changed your outlook on what was making you so upset.
That's a great story ;)
One thing I envied about you growing up was how freely you expressed your emotions. I guess now we're rubbing off on each other!
Oh, the irony of it all! Maybe the "glowing" that she thought she saw was just the red flames of irrational anger! Luckily those moods pass!
I can totally relate to the raging hormones! Good thing our husbands are patient and know we can't help it sometimes when we are pregnant!
Haha, You are so good at pretending! I hate that so bad when you are so mad you don't want to look at anyone and then you see someone you know or something and you have to "pretend" all is dandy! ;) lol. Good job. I hope you are all calmed down now.
Man, I am like that sometimes and I'm not pregnant! :) That woman saw through to your soul.
Pregnancy hormones can just be nasty! Mine I think were the worst! I almost ripped this lady's head off for rubbing up against me at the store once. She was just trying to squeeze by, and I just thought geez lady, BUG OFF! But I didn't say anything.
