Well, I have the answer. YES--it does exist. And my husband is my proof! He's is an incredible man. Today, he surprised me at my work with a dozen roses. We have a secured building which doesn't allow him access. He was able to get the administrative assistant's phone number and have her let him in. I was in the conference room getting ready for a meeting, when I look up and saw him coming down the hall with the roses in his hands. Needless to say, I didn't care who was looking --- I planted one on him right there and then!
At that point, I think he might have grabbed my butt (which is a joke between us---we try to pinch each other's butts in the most unusual places so as to embarrass the other one) [Note: he is winning in this game...he often grabs my behind in CHURCH and says, "hey, we're married; God doesn't mind..."] LOL
He is an amazing person. I am truly blessed to have him in my life. Not sure what I did to deserve him, but . . . he's ALL MINE!!
Okay....I'm not sure who all reads my blog (maybe two of you??), but I am going to pose a question to get some feedback. It's okay to ask it in this forum because my family doesn't read this blog-------
I talked to Kristi about it the other day (She's my counselor. Hey Kris - the check's in the mail). I like to talk to Kristi for several reasons: 1) She's hilarious; 2) I've known her my whole life and am proud to call her my sister; 3) She's an amazing and courageous woman who loves the Lord and makes it evident that she is His child; 4) etc.
Anyway, here's the question: Is 41 too old to have a baby? First off -- NO, I'm not pregnant (don't freak, Wendy). However, we have an appointment with a fertility specialist in a couple weeks to see if it is a possibility. I had my tubes tied when my youngest was born since we didn't plan on having any more. But, we've been talking over the last year or so (every once in a while) about maybe having another one. Here's the scoop:
When the older three are at their father's house, the youngest is left alone and REALLY misses them. This would give him companionship. Also, we currently have ONE girl and four boys. She has been asking for a sister her whole precious life. She would be too excited for words~ But, most importantly, we want another baby. Hubby thought I was opposed to it, so he didn't want to bring it up. But now, he's getting so excited! So, on March 2nd, we meet with a specialist to see if it can happen. Good news is that if we don't have one of our own, I think we're going to try to adopt.
Okay ~ all you in blog-land...help a sister out?!?!? Thoughts? Am I crazy?
fondly,
fit
