People Vs. Elephants
Today was one of the very rare days Aimee did not like being pregnant. The air-conditioning was the only reason she stayed sane. Rachel ha started going to a toddler swim class that week. Today Aimee's mother took her. Being seven months and three weeks pregnant tiredness was starting to set in again for the mother-to-be and Aimee was grateful her mother was such a help. Lacy just enjoyed any time she spend with Rachel—the fact that she was helping Aimee was a bonus.
On a day like today Aimee thought nine months was too long to be pregnant.
A man had to make it go on this long, she thought to herself trying to get comfortable on the couch. She picked up the remote control and flipped through the channels. She settled on the Discovery Animal Channel. There was a documentary on there about the elephant.
"Gee, the exact animal I feel like right now," Aimee said out-loud.
"The elephant is the largest living land mammal. The female elephant will be pregnant for a total of 22 months," the narrator stated.
Today the expectant mother felt it had been that long for her too.
