Cathy got some good news this week. Cathy started waiting just after I did. She and her husband have loved and lost as foster parents (something that I was not brave enough to do).
Sweet Cathy, I hope you meet your peanut very soon. I have really enjoyed the way you have grown on your blog. I don't mean that in a condescending way, I mean it in a big sister kind of way. I am proud of you, and thrilled that you finally have some joy. Congratulations!
Tomorrow marks one year of 'officially waiting' for us. I have a post I am working on, but it is a little, uhm, crazy, intense. In addition to writing down some thoughts, I have come with up with the mistakes I have made along the way. You can imagine how long it is.
Have a good weekend.

You have me intrigued... I can't wait to read your reflections on one year.
ReplyDeleteThanks Julie! You have definitely helped keep me sane and helped me learn a lot in this process. I will still be keeping my fingers crossed that you can be rejoicing soon! I know we haven't met in real life but you are a rockstar and I am so glad that blogging land has brought us together.
ReplyDeleteYour strength inspires me.
Happy 1 year of waiting...not that it's not more like a lifetime of waiting!! Congrats on not going totally crazy. I'm sure we will be celebrating soon your very first family day!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope I reach some clarity on this. It's like full speed ahead and then a complete stop. It's a little mind blowing. Thanks for you comment...it certainly helps to not feel so alone on this journey to our children. I hope good news comes to you very soon friend!
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking a lot in the last few days about you guys hitting the one year mark (who me? checking a certain list frequently?!?) and what the last year has meant to you. I look forward to the post but, even more so, I look forward to another post one day soon - one about a certain "proposal."
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see you. xoxo.
ReplyDeleteOne year! Feels so surreal doesn't it?!
ReplyDeleteI am intrigued also and can't wait to read your post.
