Story

So, you would all kill me if I said "just kidding" about the last post, huh!?! hahah!! Ok...no, it's true! Baby #5 is on the way...and we couldn't be happier!! Crazy...but happy!! :-) Thank you for all of the comments!! 27!!! Good grief!

So, I have a wonderful story that goes along with us deciding to get pregnant. Some of you said that you thought I was done. Well...that means that you never talked to me about it because I have always been on the fence. I never felt like I was completely done. Ryan on the other hand wasn't open to discussing it. So, here's the story. Ryan's dad passed away in May. About a month or so after he passed away, Ryan had a dream about him. He was holding the hand of a little child. Ryan didn't tell me about the dream...I think he was a little scared about what it meant. Then about a week or so later I started having baby dreams. Ryan and I talked about it and he told me about his dream as well. We decided that we should pray about it. Sure enough we felt so strongly that we were to start trying. I have had 1 cycle since stopping the pill (too much info??? sorry!). Here's the very interesting part. My due date is the day that Ryan's dad passed away. Can you believe that? I guess when it's meant to be, it's meant to be, huh?

Well, that's my story....and I'm sticking to it!!

SUCH a cool, cool story, Melanie. Make sure it's in the baby book--that's something your new baby should know about! Hope you start to feel better soon, Sweet Mama.
