I was going to "blog" about how I dropped Isabel off for her first day of Preschool. But, I think I will wait and let you know how it went first.
So I guess I will "blog" about me. Well, over the New Year, I found out I was pregnant! After 2 years, several rounds of medications, and 3 IUI's we figured the only way we are going to get pregnant is if Josh Deploys! Sure enough, he leaves next week. I will be without him, again, for an entire pregnancy. At least I am closer to home and have a crazy 2, almost 3, year old to help me!
I feel so blessed to have struggled and been challenged, only to have another miracle come into our life. We were not expecting it at all because we decided to take a break from it all, only because Josh was leaving. While in Utah over the holidays, we went to the temple for the first time in a couple years. (Sad to admit) But will enjoying the peace and calmness, I prayed. I prayed that we would some day be blessed with another child. I didn't realize at the time I actually was. So, while in this moment, my mind was directed to go and just take a test. I asked if it would be positive, and an immediate yes came to mind. I couldn't believe it because that has happened before and it was always negative. But I was in the temple; a place for answers, a place of comfort, and a place where I knew the most important people in my life dwell. I couldn't help but realize it was for real.
So, we have made it to San Diego. My favorite place on earth! Josh leaves in a week, Isabel started Preschool, and I will be house hunting. Yes, I am determined to spend at least the next 3 years in a place of my own. Where I can hang family portraits, paint walls, hopefully garden, and not have to carry groceries up 3 flights of stairs. Also, I will be expecting family and friends to come visit Iz and I.
