DotMoms Post: The Big Month
My newest piece is up at DotMoms called, The Big Month…
Posted by Melissa on September 16th, 2006 under That One Time I Thought About ConceivingFor years, I wanted to have a third child but someone never wanted it. That’s right. I wanted a baby but my husband most certainly did not. His reasons were always good, too good. We had two kids already, we were both in college, kids are hellions on wheels, we both worked outside the home, the marriage needed help, we then started new careers, the laundry was never done, the cats looked jealous already, the living room paint wasn’t dry…
Yet one glorious day, he looked at me and said it. “Let’s have another baby.â€
I, naturally, collapsed in puddle of laughter before looking up, tears in my eyes, “Are you kidding me, because that’s not funny.â€

That’s just plain mean! (He wasn’t kidding, though, was he?)

I just scared the bejeesus out of my coworker when an involuntary “YAY!” erupted out of my mouth upon visiting the CHBM site.
Holy run-on sentences, Batman!
I am so glad! Well-deserved, lady. Well-deserved.
