Background to this conversation: I'm 40 weeks and 3 days pregnant, sitting on the couch after church (me leaving early, I couldn't make it past sacrament meeting...sorry..)
Josh: Oh, did you hear Vanessa R. had her bab...
Laura: Don't even tell me...*sigh*....ok....when?
Josh: This morning.
Laura: That's nice (in a very polite tone of course). She wasn't due for 2 more weeks. (again, a very pleasant voice..lol)
Josh: I wonder how Leanna and Alex are doing....
Laura: She probably had her baby too (she's due Aug 28th)
Josh (thinking out loud, still not aware of the venom headed his way): Maybe I'll call them this afternoon and see how they're doing.
Laura: How about how I'M doing? Maybe you should give me a blessing or something? (ok maybe a little sarcasm is sneaking into my otherwise angelic voice)
Josh (a little apprehensive): Um...Do you need a blessing?
Laura: (dripping with acid, I have to admit it) DO I?????
Josh: I think what you need is an exorcism.

Hee hee . . .oh the glories of overdue pregnancies! I'm sorry today was a disaster. . . take one symphony bar (giant size) and wash it down with cherry pepsi and call me in the morning!!
Wait a minute, is the EQP qualified to perform an exorcism? I mean, if he can still walk after you kicked him for saying such a terrible thing to his pregnant wife! :)
ROFL! OMG Laura! I was laughing so hard I snorted! haha! Still no luck huh?? I'm praying for you! I LOVE YOU! You can kick my brother again if you like, you have my permission, LOL!!
Ok I think you are ok silly girl! You should how ever warn Josh that he is VERY BRAVE or CRAZY not sure which! LOL
I'm just getting caught up on your blog and I'm so sorry I haven't seen this one sooner. You have the bravest husband in the whole world, and you have a terrific sense of humor for sharing this exchange with us. :) Make sure to put it in your book someday...you know...the one you're writing & ppl won't know if it's fact or fiction? :)
