On the first Tuesday of each month, I link up with The Journey at Still Standing Magazine to discuss where I am on my journey towards motherhood after a devastating miscarriage in February.
Yesterday was my birthday, a day of celebration. There were smiles & candles & frosting & wishes! & I celebrate, for there is much to be thankful for in my beautiful, imperfect life. I have hope & love in my heart. I have big dreams that maybe, just maybe, our dreams of expanding our family will come true this year. It's possible, anything is possible!
I can only guess as to how close or how far I am from having a baby & becoming a mom.
Until my birthday wish to have a baby comes true, I continue to wait. It seems like I have been waiting forever & I have no idea how much longer I will have to wait. I can't help but feel the chorus of "The Waiting" by Tom Petty is my theme song on my journey:
"The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you get one more yard
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part"
Every day you get one more yard
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part"
Waiting. Still waiting.
