The mind is an amazing thing

Over the last three days I have been in a daze. Kinda on autopilot. And I realized yesterday how amazing your brain can be... even when yer not even thinking about it.

Since Wednesday, everytime I have went to the bathroom I noticed I have been really careful when I have been wiping. Well, yesterday, I realized I was doing that. And I thought to myself "Why are you doing that?" And then it hit me. My brain was telling me to wipe carefully because of the stitches.

STITCHES??

I thought some more. I was on autopilot... and I was pregnant, well... since I was bleeding, that must have meant I had the baby. I have always had stitches after childbirth because my children were all big and over 8 pounds. My mind had put me on autopilot to be careful of the stitches. Even though they weren't even there. *sigh* I thought that was interesting. The brain really is amazing.

On a lighter note, I wanted to write about 5 things I am grateful for right now:

1. To be alive.
2. To have four healthy, wonderful children
3. To have my husband, who is my hero.
4. To have amazing friends who really care.
5. To feel loved everyday that I am alive.
