I get the standard preggo leg cramps at night but I'm sure that's nothing like what you're going through. I hope you get some relief soon! I'm using Father Peyton's Rosary Prayer Book this Lent (and hopefully after Lent too) to help me in praying the Rosary daily again. Part of the reflection for the Ascension today made me think of you and I wanted to share it: "Jesus told His disciples that He must leave them ~for their own good~. In time of trouble, when God seems to leave me, it is for the same reason." You've mentioned a spiritual darkness and when I read this I thought maybe it would be helpful to you in some way. Then, this from the reflection on the Coronation: "While there's hope, there's life. Mary was an optimist, even on Calvary, because she saw God's will in everything. Hopeful optimism is a virtue God expects of me." I've always loved the Pieta, but I've never looked at it and thought "that's hope." I've always thought of Mary's acceptance of God's will and Jesus' great love for us when looking at it, but not necessarily hope. Again, I just wanted to share these with you. I didn't know how to leave a general message for you (hence why I've left this under your RLS entry). I hope that's OK. Get some rest if you can and I can wait to hear of Little One's arrival! :) A friend in Christ, Belle Sorry about the RLS.

So, that's why it looked your first two comments didn't go through. :-) Your prayers mean more to me than anything - that's about the only thing anyone can do. It's hard to believe there is less than 4 weeks now until the due date, I really hope the babe comes early like Elise did (well, she was early by 3 days, lol). I love being pregnant (even with annoying RLS goodness) but by around this time, I'm ready to deliver and meet our little one. Prayers right back at you, and hugs as well. :-) @ Nicole, thank you so much for your prayers. :-)
