Since the Journey is a Long One

Since my journey to try and have a baby is going to be a long one, I am trying to keep everything in check and take everything one step at a time. You know "in due time" - no pun intended.

Sometimes playing it low key is hard. I get excited at the idea of being pregnant, of becoming a mommy and all that goes along with it. I know I have many steps to take before we start trying but it is still exciting. I have to temper that to keep everything in perspective.  I have to temper it with the reality (that every trying to get pregnant mom has) that it might not work. I have to temper it by remembering that if it doesn't work I am still blessed and have a wonderful life. All that and my excitement is automatically tempered by the number of things I have to DO before I can start having pregnancy sex.

But you know what I don't care tonight. I am excited at what the rest of 2008 has to bring and all the possibilities. I am exited for the time I can pee on a stick in hopeful expectation so if I post now and again along the way and you think..."oh no she's getting her hopes up so soon...." You better believe I am. Hope is a powerful thing. Toss in a little faith (which I am working on cultivating) and the possibilities are endless.

I am so excited. I feel like I am on this journey with you...minus the pregnancy sex and weird diet.

Happiness, Hope and Faith...your 2008 is going to be great.
