Change of Attitude

I sat today, thinking about how negative I have been in the last few days...wrong, so wrong of me. How do I expect to receive goodness when I am sending out such negative feedback. Bad Brat!!!!!

So today, I am going to focus on the postive.

My Brother is staying with us for a week. His two children are absolutely beautiful. My niece has my B wrapped around her little finger. She sticks her arms in the air and immediately is snatched up by my B. She wraps her tiny arms around his neck. I can see that he is loving it. He would make an excellent "Daddy". God willing, I hope this will be our path to walk

My step daughter spent the weekend with us. She is twenty years old and is really becoming a woman. But her Dad, my B, often sits her down and has a heart to heart talk with her. It is only then that I see that innocence coming out. She looks at her Dad and I can see the love she has for him. She bought me a pair of baby socks this weekend...with "Happy Cats" on them. It is my Good Luck charm for my up and coming IVF.
This week has really been a week for family, celebrating the joys of having a brother and sisters. I would not change it for the world. Yeah, we fight...yeah, they like to tell me what to do (I am the baby)...but I cannot deny the warm sensation that fills my heart being around them.
I went to Vitalab on Tuesday for my CD (cycle day) 2. They scanned me. I cannot say it was a pleasant experience. Nothing like having "Tannie Van Rooyen" and your FS sticks his scanning probe up there. My B and I were in hysterics...trying to wipe away the evidence. It was Yuck...but hell, if this is the price to pay for a little one of our own, bring it on.
The IVF nurse has put me on the pill. I have been a good girl. I have taken it every morning along with my folic acid and multi vitamin. I wish that I could fast forward until the end of March to see if my IVF works...but that would be wishing my life away, again. I need to focus on today. I need to live for now.

Hello today..I welcome you with open arms
