Lessons Learned |

Well, I got the drilling done. It was nice to get that second opinion because this dentist said instead of having 13 cavities I BARELY had 4. So lesson learned: If it seems fishy, get a second opinion. Anyway, that was the final major item on my checklist. So here I am, anxious and ready to procreate! But there’s still one thing… That little September goal. I originally pushed for July or August but my better half wasn’t budging, so here I am waiting and trying to keep myself occupied. I’m almost tired of reading fertility books. Now I’m just ready to put them to use. “What’s he waiting for?” You ask. Oh, well pretty much our money situation to get better. I know, I know… We’ll never have enough money. Yea, sure, tell him that! I’m not sure what’s worse cause I’ve never been on the other side… Wanting to have a baby now, and not being able to because of someone else, or not being able to because of your body. Heck… I don’t even know if my body (or his) is working properly, I can imagine us laughing at the fact that we’ve used birth control for nearly five years, finding out later we didn’t even need it. I pray that’s not the case, but I’m very aware of that possible reality. I’ve gotta admit, sometimes I’ve been tempted to “forget” to use the birth control. But I know that’s a sure way to take our marriage into turmoil. So another lesson learned: Kids, they come and go. My husband. I chose him, and I chose to love him forever. And when our kids grow up and move away, I’ll still have him to live the rest of my life with, so we’d better make it a good one. Besides… People always talk about how hard kids are and how we should enjoy this time together. So I’m going to try to enjoy this alone time we have together… All the while awaiting the words that will form the next happiest day of my life. The day he says, “Let’s do it!” Any ideas on how to keep your mind off babies for two months? |
