I didn't think I had anything to write about today, thus the Random Pics below. But then I remembered that I DID have something I wanted to get out that was practically killing me at work.
So, Lynda reported yesterday that Sonia (whom I refer to as "Pregnant Girl") had her baby this past weekend. You'd think I'd be happy, but I'm not. Sonia is the pregnant girl who blatently sits in front of the office 6-7 times a day SMOKING when she's OUT TO HERE pregnant. I realize that it's none of my business, but give me a break. She doesn't even try to hide it.
The report was that the baby was born 4 weeks early (although some have reservations that she lied about her due date) and that he was 5 pounds 3 oz. When the picture was shared, he looked smaller than that. About as big as the palm of her hand, but maybe I'm exaggerating.
I don't understand why IN TODAY'S WORLD, with all the knowledge we have, someone would continue smoking HEAVILY throughout their pregnancy. I'm not talking about the person who just can't seem to quit and still has one a day (even though I'm against that), I'm talking about this broad who went out for her 4 breaks to smoke in front of the building, smoked at lunch, smoked in her car before and after work. She also drinks Mt. Dew like it's going out of style, but that isn't as bad as trapping a baby in a smoke filled bubble for 9 months.
How is it that people like her can get pregnant 3 times, but Patrick and I are going to struggle to have a baby? We have accepted the fact that we might not be able to have kids, and that's what makes watching her do that to a helpless baby worse. I KNOW I wouldn't do those things to my body, or my baby, so why do I have to be the one who has problems? If I'm able to get pregnant it will be a blessing, and I pray that God has it in our paths to bring children into our lives, but I can't help but judge someone who knowingly, purposefully and willingly harms their children like that and then brags about how small her babies were when they were born.
