Dear Little One -

How quickly life's path can change. As your dad and I talked more about you, we were looking at your potential time to start growing being another 18mo away or so. I was going to help a friend bring her baby here first, so when you're time came I could give you all of my time to nurse and pump. It ended up not being the right time for them afterall, and I offered the possibility to your dad to start now!

He was so excited. I don't remember what day of my cycle I was on at that point, but know I was waiting for AF to start. Your "day 1" in your growth if you ended up growing that month. It started right on time, and since I was talking with your dad at that moment he was able to truly be a part of you from the very start :)

It came quicker then he and I planned, but today we sat in the midwife's office filling paperwork out, and preparing to complete an insem. Although day 12, and no LH surge, we chose to take this day since it was the only day our midwife was in her office and her signature was needed for a piece of paper to help tell the judges that you were very important to your daddy and planned. He did his part, and came back to where we all were. I left, and did my part. I looked at the cup that held all the magic of the possibility of you, and remembered when we conceived your big sister Emily. When we have an LH surge, your daddy will visit again but today is still very special. You are possible!

I am so very hopeful that this is your month. Daddy says you'll still be a dragon baby! I looked at Emily today and thought about how amazing of a big sister she will be, and wondered what you will be like.

I feel like I'm walking a dream ~ such a sweet dream. It really is our time, and within two weeks you could be a reality!
