Happy birthday to me!

Things aren't going as planned with our IF journey but I woke up to the sweet sound of DD saying, "happy birthday, mommy!" I spent the day with DH yesterday and I'll be celebrating tonight with a few of my closest friends and DH. So... life is good. I'm counting my blessings today. Next month we'll try again to do IVF, but for now, I'm feeling very fortunate.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!
DD conceived naturally in 2009.  TTC #2 since August 2010.  Praying for guidance as we decide what's next.

When the world says, "Give up,"

Hope whispers, "Try it one more time."
