Hi Ehren,
I went to the doctor’s on Tuesday. They said everything is probably fine, I just likely ovulated way early. Now we’re on to round 2/3. If this one is unsuccessful, then we’ll call the RE and set up our appointment for consultation. but first, I have some other stuff I wanted to tell you.
I’ve been reading parenting books lately while biding my time. That’s right! I come from an only-child family, with only one younger cousin. I have very little babysitting experience, but I do have a knack for talking to kids for the most part. The one I am reading right now is “The Power of Positive Parenting” by Drs. William Mitchell and Charles Paul Conn. As I pore over the pages, I realize that the powers of positive anything are a big help. You know, the same thing that Rhonda what’s-her-name was saying in that book, “The Secret”. Think positive, and it will happen.
It occurred to me last night I have seriously gotten away from my positive outlook. Instead of believing that this WILL happen, I have turned into a pessimistic, whiny girl. A spoiled brat who doesn’t get what she wants. As soon as I let go of everything and trust that it will happen, I felt an overwhelming sense of calm. I enjoy being with your dad more than anything I can imagine, and if you arrive, then you do. If not, then we will still madly love one another.
I am very hopeful that this will be our lucky month! Unless I get another 17 day barrel of fun, I test on the day your grandparents arrive back home from Germany, and what a way to greet them! What a way to greet YOU!
We love you. Always.
<3, Eden
