Thank you to my in-laws, Denny and Karen McCartney, for bringing us to White Birch Lodge yet again! This is my seventh year coming here with kids. Each year gets better. Now Cate and Jane and even Ann are old enough to enjoy the kids' program each morning from 10-12, so we get some time to read, go into town, excercise. Then, the rest of the day, we all enjoy beach and lake time with the girls, because they are old enough to really enjoy it, too! Jane asked yesterday if we could live here. It's fun living in a little cinderblock cabin right next door (hollering distance - "Is the coffee ready?") from Grandma and Papa, Aunt Meghan and Aunt Mary. It's even fun at 29 weeks pregnant, although I can't waterski or be as athletic as I would like. Check me out in the kayak, though! Even though I love being pregnant, and I am excited about it, and there is a good reason why I lumber along, and am carrying this extra weight, I still feel like a whale and envy the slim, active ladies here. Self image issues don't completely go away, they just change. By God's grace, I can remember to be thankful and keep perspective!
