I wish I may, I wish I might

I didn't know what I wanted to do with this blog. I had been chronicling our IVF journey on my other blog for awhile now. I think I am done with that. All the details, the timelines, the heartbreak. I need and want to focus on our family. Each day that passes brings us closer to our child and that is a beautiful thing. Not knowing how many days will pass before we bring our son(s)/daughter(s) home with us is the hard part. It feels like we have been waiting forever. The dream began in 2003 and we had our first loss in 2003. It is 2008 now. Years of trying, 7 surgeries, 3 failed rounds of Clomid, 2 failed IVF's, and too many losses. We have endured it all. We have come out stronger. It is amazing what love can do. We are two people in this whirlwind and we have each other to hold on to. We share a love that I could have never imagined. And it keeps me going. As do our wonderful friends and family.
I think what I'll do is post a picture each day. Each day that passes until we are parents. Starting tomorrow, Valentine's Day. I think that's appropriate, because that's what this is all about....love.

That was such a beautiful post, and I truly mean it. As always, your attitude in all of this never ceases to amaze me. You are the strongest person I have ever met, and have such an amazing spirit. I am in awe of how you are able to see the light at the end of the all-too-long tunnel. But it IS there, none the less, that is true. I just hope you get there sooner rather than later. No two people deserve that more. Love, such a beautiful thing, in all its many forms.
