A New Life: The Wait is OVER!!!!

Loved you yesterday,
Love you still,
Always have, Always will

Damaged people are dangerous...they know they can survive

When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace ~Jimi Hendrix

Let us reach for the world that ought to be. We can understand that there will be war, and still strive for peace. ~President Obama

The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware...joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware." -Henry Miller

"Truth is everybody is going to hurt you, you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for."
-Bob Marley

The Wait is OVER!!!!

That last post was really mean, and I'm so sorry...but I just couldn't help it!

I was too excited to say nothing, but it was too soon to say anything so you got what you got.

Kevin and I have some great news to share!!!

After a year and half of waiting and hoping...and waiting...we are finally pregnant and expecting our little one July 28th!

I am about 9 weeks along right now, and so far have been feeling CRAPPY! I didn't think it was possible to feel that gross, constantly, but it is. And it sucks!

But I'll take it!
