Nothing new...

We are still waiting for a referral and have only heard that siblings are getting harder and harder to get unless we up the ages again. We are still going to stick it out but think that either way this might be the only time we do this. It's a rollercoaster ride that I'm not sure I would ever want to do again. I know once I have a child in my arms I might think differently. But until then I might just say this will be it.

Crying over a Pampers commercial?

I've been an emotional wreck today. I was watching TV and a Pamper’s commercial came on and the tears started to flow. I've been crying over every little thing it seems. I feel that this journey has drained me emotionally and mentally. I can't seem to understand how I keep going forward. It seems that you go through so many up's and down's along the road. I try to find comfort in knowing that I'm not alone along this journey. There are so many other families out there that are going through the same thing as we are. I find that reading other blogs helps ease the pain and give me hope for the future. As I know I will soon be talking about our children in our lives rather then the pitfalls of the process to get them. Our lives will change for sure when they arrive and it will make the wait so well worth it.
