3 years ago



so yesterday was a very special day. it marked the day that three years ago, we drove down to the san diego fertility center and ended our journey and the process of iui - inter-uterine insemination. it was quite a day! i remember making chris drive us to our favorite beach right before our procedure. i was so nervous. and anxious. sick to my stomach of the thoughts of "what if this doesn't work?" "what are we going to do?" "this HAS to work!" it had been a long road. of trying, of taking clomid, doing test after test, the next one more uncomfortable and unbearable than the previous. we set a plan with the fertility center. then came the shots. chris was so brave having to inject my stomach every night at 9pm. i dreaded the nights. but we stuck it out. so many countless tears. waiting. and waiting some more. we found out later that one egg fertilized. logan had been created. i simply cannot thank the doctors, the nurses, and the staff enough. every one of them so kind. coming in over the weekend since that was the day it had to happen. there is not a day that goes by that i don't hold logan and remember the feeling of how thankful i am for his little life. it's been a long journey. but i would do it again in a second to end up with logan. he's my everything. love you loges. happy "special" day. xoxo
