"Many nights we lie awake talking about the future..."
My husband and I have been together for eight years and married for almost four. The moment I saw him I knew I just had to meet him, so I had a mutual friend introduce us. Out first date was on April Fool's Day and I remember thinking (as I was getting ready for our date) that nothing good could come out of a first date on April Fool's! I'm glad I was wrong! Chris is the most amazing man; he's smart, supportive, and has a great sense of humor -- amazing! I consider myself very lucky.
We started trying to conceive in May 2007. The best part of TTC (besides the obvious) is dreaming with my husband about everything baby related...names, nurseries, traditions, etc. Many nights we lie awake and talk about the future. He thinks we'll be the "Dream Team" of parenting! The worst part about TTC is that it's taking longer than we expected. My body took a long time to get regulated and almost a year later I'm finally feeling back on track. I'm looking forward to being a mom. I teach second grade and I love my students so much, I can't want to have my own kids! And sharing that experience with my best friend is more than I could hope for.
