Goodbye 2012, Hello 2013

It's interesting to look over the past year, 2012.  It's been a rough year, obviously, but it's been a good year, too.  As much as I wish things were different, I look back and know that this is just how things were meant to be.

Christmastime

Somehow it seems fitting that my 100th post is also about Christmas.  I always have loved Christmas.  This year, though, it was so different...

The Home Study

I haven't talked about it lately, so here we go!  Our adoption process...  Today was the "dreaded" home visit day.

40 Weeks

Today is my due date, December 21, 2012.  The day that the world is supposed to end...winter solstice...the beginning to longer days...  A lot can change in 40 weeks...

Broken Dreams

As I was sitting at the pharmacy waiting for my prescriptions the other day, I couldn't help by notice that the covers on all the magazines were about pregnant celebrities, most notably the UK Royal Family.  Mamamia posted about this a couple of weeks ago and I truly related to her post, but with some events in my life right now I thought it probably worthwhile to post my own post about it.

Tragedy in CT

Everything going on in Connecticut today just breaks my heart.  For those who aren't from here or haven't watched the news, a 20 year old went into an elementary school after killing his own mother (a teacher at the school) and ended up shooting a total of 26 people and himself. Twenty were children.

A Glimmer of Hope

I have ideas for a number of blog posts right now and I just haven't taken some time to write them!  So you may get quite a few in the next day or two...yay! :)  I think what I'm most excited to share is the experience we had with our fertility doctors...

A Meaning?

I saw the psychiatrist yesterday (more about that at some other time), but he thought that something I said really stuck out...

I'm searching for meaning in a situation where I know there will surely never be a real meaning.  I'm trying to make a meaning for me and in my life so that I don't feel like there was no reason for this to happen...even though there really is no meaning or reason for why this happened.  I need to find one for me.
