It is so hard to be around children. It is just too close to home.<br /><br />I love your positive thinking! I hope that you are thrilled with the results of the appointment, and that it makes you smile very big.Noellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17217779025743115019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7373638391320062445.post-56799398064656976632009-12-07T06:05:45.166-06:002009-12-07T06:05:45.166-06:00I'm trying to embrace positive thinking too bu...I'm trying to embrace positive thinking too but sometimes the depressing thoughts creep in.

That I'm comforting MY baby, and that he's happy to be in MY arms... Hurts so good, huh?<br /><br />I was SO sure that I would be pregnant by this Christmas... We're so bummed that it hasn't happened yet, that this sort of feels like any other month. For the first time EVER, neither of us are motivated to get a Christmas tree. Normally we get one the day after thanksgiving...<br /><br />Don't feel bad or weird about posting the sad stuff. I do the same thing, I'm not always sad, it's just easier to write when I am. It feels good to get the bad stuff off my chest. <br /><br />I hope things go well with C's upcoming appointment! Can't wait to hear all the details.Melissa Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04150534738341942742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7373638391320062445.post-43450361130403492062009-12-06T21:40:04.871-06:002009-12-06T21:40:04.871-06:00I know just how you feel, the holidays are very di...I know just how you feel, the holidays are very difficult for me as well.
