New Lace Undies

So it's been 8 weeks since Evelyn was born. My husband keeps reminding me that it's time. You know what I mean. The six week healing process is up and he wants his wife back, eh hmm. Well, my doctor informed me that it isn't time until my IUD goes in, sorry baby! Okay, anyway.

I decided, that since there is nothing about my body that appeals to my eyes, I would buy some new undies to make me feel better about myself. I used to buy lace underwear and it would stay nice. I would wear it all the time and it made me feel feminine and sexy. Things during cancer I needed to feel. I would wash them and they would come out in the form of underwear. Stay with me.

So, I washed my new underwear. Let me re-phrase that, I put them in the laundry and Bill washed them. Want to know what he washed them with...bibs. Do you know how most bibs close, Velcro. Do you see where I am going with this? I pull out my new undies out of the basket today and what do I find...a bib stuck to my lace undies. Yep, the bib says "single" on it and it is stuck to my lace underwear. At first I am mad. Then I think it's funny. Now I am concerned. Is this a sign of things to come? Is there every going to be a day that I own nice lace undies again? Or where Billy and I won't sleep in our sweatpants with a toddler between us? phew.

I think the bib attached undies were a brief reminder that I am a mom first. I will always be a mom and even when I want a special moment with my husband, there will be a bib attached, per say. I think it's time to go back to the laundry basket now and see what else my undies got washed with, maybe it'll teach me another lesson!
