Things I Love!

June 5 2009

Don’t worry, I’m not crazy I know today is the 4th…but since I normally don’t post on Saturday’s I figure today will be fine…This post is about  my experience last year on June 5 2009

I always am amazed at where a year will take you. How many journeys you get to go on and how [...]

Is There a Fastforward Button?

I wrote this post last week. The week before my first appointment. It’s been a VERY long couple of weeks waiting, and I just wanted to write down some of my thoughts.

Sometimes in life I wish there was a fast forward button we could hit just to move things along a little quicker. Or maybe a [...]

We Have A Bean!

Before I go any further I just want to ask that anyone I know in real life please do NOT post anything on facebook regarding what you read in this post. I wanted to share with my readers because they have been on this long journey with me. Thank you!

Remembering Happiness Trumps Sadness

I am sad…I will admit it. I have been working so hard at staying positive and being happy, but sometimes the sadness creeps in and there is nothing I can do. This week has been hard. It’s really hard knowing that had everything gone right I would be getting ready to meet my [...]

Sucker Punch to the Gut

I experienced a bit of a sucker punch today when I looked at the calendar and realized that January is almost over. This means that had I not had a miscarriage this past summer, I would be EXTREMELY close to my due date of February 13th. I can’t believe that it’s been almost [...]

In our lives we live through good dreams and bad dreams. We hope that most of our days will be filled with good days but sometimes we don’t have a say. One dream like event for me was my wedding. It was all I could’ve ever dreamed of. It all fit to my [...]
