Cravings | I Dwell in Possibility
https://jhampton612.wordpress.com/2014/12/23/cravings
I Dwell in Possibility. Focusing on the present while dreaming about the future. December 23, 2014. However, seeing these patients in the office and having one of these patients living in one’s home are two completely different entities. Yeah, we’re totally not one of those lucky couples. But then the cravings and nausea began. Now, I want to preface this saying that Bethany’s symptoms are actually quite mild compared to most women’s, but again, having the entire experience go on in my home instead o...

Waiting for Tears | I Dwell in Possibility
https://jhampton612.wordpress.com/2014/12/23/waiting-for-tears
I Dwell in Possibility. Focusing on the present while dreaming about the future. December 23, 2014. December 23, 2014. Now that we’ve finally announced the pregnancy, I can start to post some of the thoughts I’ve been writing. When I got home, Bethany surprised me by pulling out a pair of baby Toms shoes and the positive pregnancy test. I laughed, hugged her, and waited for the tears to start pouring down. I held onto her tight and kept waiting. The Land Before Time. 4 weeks later, I’m still waiting for ...

I Dwell in Possibility. Focusing on the present while dreaming about the future. What a Baby Wants, What a Baby Needs. February 3, 2015. Even if there were, I really don’t care. I’m wildly narcissistic and think that most of outer space is a waste of time because even if there is life out there, that life does not directly affect me. Billions of dollars is spent annually so some joker can walk on Mars for 10 minutes, when that money could be spent digging wells for starving people in Ethiopia. Then I tho...

The Nursery | I Dwell in Possibility
https://jhampton612.wordpress.com/2015/06/16/the-nursery
I Dwell in Possibility. Focusing on the present while dreaming about the future. June 16, 2015. June 17, 2015. Give Bethany her sewing machine and give me a paintbrush and an old wooden pallet, and we’ll produce something useful. So, without further ado, I present Catherine’s nursery. With some love, sandpaper, mint green paint and new hardware, our baby’s dresser came to fruition. The dresser cost us $60 to buy, and we probably put $30 into it for paint and hardware. That’s not too b...Bethany bought th...

My Baby, the Prude | I Dwell in Possibility
https://jhampton612.wordpress.com/2015/01/27/my-baby-the-prude
I Dwell in Possibility. Focusing on the present while dreaming about the future. My Baby, the Prude. January 27, 2015. January 27, 2015. My most current struggle has been planning for a baby with an unknown gender. I realize that until 30 years ago, women didn’t get routine ultrasounds, and the gender of every baby was a surprise, but Bethany and I are choosing to embrace technology and find out what parts our baby’s got down there. Since I have some extra resources in my line of work, I texted one of th...

I Dwell in Possibility. Focusing on the present while dreaming about the future. The Art of Being Disciplined…and How I Don’t Have It. July 19, 2014. July 19, 2014. My guys’ Bible study is currently going through two books together. The first is. By Francis Chen which is basically a guide book for witnessing and discipleship. The other book is. The Spiritual Disciplines Handbook. Initially, I was really excited about going through these with my group of guys. I truly have a desire to have a closer wa...

Operating Instructions | I Dwell in Possibility
https://jhampton612.wordpress.com/2015/01/18/operating-instructions
I Dwell in Possibility. Focusing on the present while dreaming about the future. January 18, 2015. I desperately wanted to call my dad and get his recommendations on parenting books, but Bethany and I both wanted to wait until we were a little bit further along in our pregnancy before we told our families. Anne is a wildly irreverent, God loving, liberal feminist. While digging around for the perfect parenting book, I remembered that a few years after publishing. It makes feel like everything will be oka...
