Great Weekend

Boy I have to say that the weather was fantastic this weekend. We celebrated Jake's 13Th birthday. For any parent, this is a milestone but for me, it made me realize that he was a teenager. It put it into perspective that we have been trying to conceive for 12 years and it was all too real. I will say that, I think I have the best kid. I might change that in about 2 months but right now I feel that I have had the best 13 years with him. He has been the most awesome child. There were time that I was not sure that DH and I would make it and he was so strong. At 9 he lost one of the most important people in his life.... His Paw-Paw. I loved that man. I know he is up there rooting for us and he is helping to make things happen. Jake handled it great. Oh yes he grieved but it just seemed that he had the right memory or the right joke his paw-paw told him at the right moment. It was great. This is just some of the things he does. I am proud to have him in my life. Now if I can just get on track.

So this is the thing that gets me...... for a woman that has always had an almost 40 day cycle... if there was one (not normally if no medications were taken) I STARTED ON DAY 29!!! What in gods creation is going on? lol. No really, I know this is a good sign. So as this starts the new month and there is counting to be done. lol. I am on cd 5 which means I need to get on the phone and get the clomid filled. lol. I have not been doing my temperature but I digress. There is just something about that. I am sure that I will do it in the morning and hope the doctor doesn't chew me out too bad. I love my doc but boy he can make you feel bad. lol. So here is to the next month and here is to the clomid warriors out there. I will listen to the Lord and as Ephesians 6:16

In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.

While looking online at the ovulation calender, I realized that this month if I got pregnant, my due date would be 1/23/09 and I have to say that it gave me goose bumps as that will be the 3 year anniversary of daddy's death. WOW. Wouldn't that be something to think about.
