Thankful for...

I am truly thankful for....

Last year on Thanksgiving day, I gave myself injections of Follistim. We had to leave from Bobby's parents house early (like 5 am) on Friday to go have a dr appt with the u/s machine and blood work. I saw 6 follies that day only to have them reduce down each time I went AND then on IUI day... there were 2!! I felt so alone and I was scared that we would never have kids. I was talking about IVF and having to wait cause we would need a second mortgage or an equity line of credit on our house. Plus I knew that we would have to wait cause I wouldn't be able to take off everyday from school for the blood work and u/s.

Now a year later- I can't believe it.

I am thankful for my girls and thankful that they are healthy! I am thankful I am their mom! I am thankful because they are the cutest things I ever made! I am thankful that they are growing and smile and coo and all the wonderful stuff they do... because they are mine! I have SO much to be thankful for!!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

PS- I am also Thankful for Thanksgiving- my favorite holiday!! NO presents- just FOOD AND FAMILY!!!

Ok I admit I got tears in my eyes reading your post :-) Everyone seems to be skipping over Thanksgiving this year and heading right into Christmas, it is SO nice to see someone else that is stopping, looking at all they have and being thankful for all we have been given. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your beautiful little girls Courtney and Bobby too LOL
