Over it

We went to small group tonight only to be greeted with a pregnancy announcement from another couple in the group. While this is great news for them, it underscores yet again that we've been on this particular hamster wheel for over 3.5 years now. I'm tired of having to find the strength to congratulate people. I'm tired of crying in public over someone else's happy news. I want my husband to be able to walk into someone's house with a gigantic smile on his face as he announces that he's an expectant father. I'm over it not being our turn.

As a side note, I really love the song by Katharine McPhee

1 - OK- can't resist commmenting- read that well-intentioned but completely erroneous anonymous analysis of you and had to chime in and say, as someone who has known you well for 10 years - everything you proceeded to explain about yourself hits the nail on the head (if only we were all so gifted at describing ourselves!) and three cheers for you (smart, decisive, and awesome woman) and for your dear hubby (strong, supportive, and equally awesome man). You guys rock. (Comment this)

3 - Hi Rebekah, i found your website when i search google with the keywords "bible and infertilty".

Reading through your journal i feel really connected to you becoz i'm 28yr and i've been married for almost 3,5 years too. For this 3,5 years i'm also tired having to find the strength to congratulate people for their "good news"... (Comment this)
