Miss and Not

As the weeks go by and the Poppy's inside time draws to a close, I have been making a mental list of things I will miss about these days and other things I won't.  One list is a bit longer than the other...

Things I Won't Miss:

• Barfing in the sink in the morning because of this cough that has plagued me since the Poppy's earliest days.  (Cough --> Gag --> Throw up).  
• The process of rolling over in the bed at night.  I refer to this as "heaving my bulk about."  Related: the process of getting out of bed.  
• Having increasingly fewer options of clothes to wear. 
• Knocking my tummy into things, or being knocked into.
• Heartburnnnnnnn.  Augh.
• This extra weight.
• Not being able to keep up with Boo Boo, especially outside.

Things I Will Miss:

• The daily pokes and prods and tap dances.  Even though they are occasionally painful, watching the Poppy move from the outside--and feeling it on the inside--never gets old to me.
• One on one time with Boo Boo.  I think I will miss this the most, since it will never happen again, ever.  I love having my little buddy around and being able to give him all my attention.  I know I will love having two buddies and he will like having his own little friend, but it's a bit sad also.
• Not having to come up with an excuse to get a milkshake/mac and cheese/fried chicken/anything.  
• Sleeping all night, like a rock.  (Though this will come again so at least it's just temporary.) 

Say, I could really go for a sherbet float ice cream cookie sandwich both milkshake right about now...
