Being pregnant ain't all bad

This is just a quick little note I wanted to make.  My husband has been studying all day for midterms and it caused an ache in his neck.  So, after working about 6 hours today I somehow found it in me to give him a neck rub to help soothe the pain.  What you need to know is I'm not that great at giving massages.  John isn't that great either and we both secretly wish we had married someone who was naturally gifted in this area.  Anyway, as I was digging in he exclaimed how good it felt and that it was the best massage I've ever given him.  I pondered as to why this might be and came up with what I think is a good assumption.  You see, I have been working less these days because pregnancy is kickin my bum and I just can't run my life in the same way that I'm used to.  My job is physically demanding and I'm constantly using my hands.  But, since I have not being using my hands as much, they must not be as tired as usual, therefore rested hands means better agility and performance.  He got very excited when I told him my theory because to him that means that someday when I'm not working, I'm just home, I will never wear out my muscles so I will always be able to give him a stronger and better massage.  Yeah well, here's hoping!
