This time last year I was in a holding pattern. We had been to adoption agencies and debating ivf. I spent the first quarter of 2008 losing weight in anticipation of beginning a cycle in early summer. I never could have imagined that the end of 2008 would be bring me the title of mother. And certainly not in the way it came about. I am simply overwhelmed that I now have a son. Most days, I am still thinking someone will wake me up from this dream realized.
For 2009, I pray that the babies born to those in the infertility community this year flourish, especially Robbie. And for those with continued longing, I want 2009 to be the year you bring your babies home.

Congratulations on a dream realized. I am with you in wishing the same to those still hoping. I am also hoping that next New Year's sees a happy and fat Robbie with a well-rested Mom.
Congratulations and Happy New Year! Hope you are well.
What an incredible blessing. You give us hope!
You're a sweetie.
OH I read this before -- but I wanted to tell you again how much I've valued your support...I hope you and Zachary are well!
Love,
Pam
What a beautiful sentiment.
Here from LFCA to wish you a very happy birthday -- though you already received the best present possible a couple of months ago.
I wonder if Z's cheeks have gotten even bigger... I've known babies who seem to gain all of their weight in the cheeks, and Z was born with a head start in the cheek dept.! :)
Thanks sweetie pea. That's a lovely thought. :)
