baby weight loss in utero
Are you counting down to Christmas? Not long to go now!! Christmas day really holds so much anticipation and excitement for us all, but sometimes I think by anticipating an event so much we can miss the moments that are happening right now, right under our noses.
I thought of this whilst training for my half marathon in October. I collapsed on the sofa one night and was telling my husband how nervous and stressed I was. I explained that if I could just get the half marathon out of the way then I would be able to relax and I wouldnt feel so worried. A few days after I had completed the half-marathon I sat on the sofa once again and told my husband how if I could just get something else done that was on my mind then I wouldnt feel so stressed. It wasnt until he reminded me that actually we had already had a very similar conversation, that I realised I spend alot of my time unknowingly wishing time away. That I anticipate future moments and I always anticipate a calmer and less stressed me, when in actual fact, I am always worrying about something or another.
I excitedly anticipate nights out. I daydream of having more money and becoming an international blogging sensation (hey, you gotta have a dream). And dont we all daydream and think if only we had a bigger house/more money/a smaller waist/more children/ insert wishful thinking here, our lives would be perfect and we would be happier. But I bet if I gave you all of those things right now, given a couple of hours you would have a new list of things to anticipate, wish for and worry about.
I am certainly not saying that anticipation and looking forward is a bad thing. I just think sometimes we get caught up in that anticipation and we sometimes lose the enjoyment of the moment we are actually in. Sometimes it isnt until time has passed that we look back and realise how wonderful that moment actually was.

For some reason now Im a mum, I have this realisation that floats about in the back of my brain that life is so so precious. Im afraid I dont have all the answers (obviously), and this realisation to enjoy the moment is sometimes only fleeting. I find I cant keep hold of it. One minute I have the thought of how wonderful this life is and just being present in the moment, and then the next Im grumpy and wishing to be tucked up in bed with my pjs on.
As I said, I do not have the answers. But I am trying to find that balance of anticipation and being present. This moment right here right now, is just as important as the moment that I am waiting for. And today, the 15th December is just as important as the 25th December (albeit with less presents), and today I am going to do my very best to enjoy it.
