I am in a bit of a reflective mood tonight. It was one year ago tomorrow that my life changed forever. I, to put it bluntly, peed on a stick. The line was very faint. I was pregnant. It answered so many unknowns. I was so thankful. I was also scared about the unknown. I had never been pregnant. I had never really gone through a pregnancy with a friend.
Now, a year later, I could have never imagined my life this way. I wouldn’t change it for the world. I sort of remember what life was like without her. I just know that even with the trials we have hit so far, it is the best thing that could have ever happened to me.
Tomorrow I am home with the little girl again. I am getting some company though. Mandy and Jess are coming over. We will just hang out during the day. Jess will spend the night here. Mandy will go home since she has something going on. Then Saturday night it is going to be a girls’ night out. I really need a night away. I think it makes me a better mother when I get some time alone, which is why I know that subbing is the right thing for me to do tonight.
The house still isn’t as clean as I would like it to be, but I’m not going to worry about it. I know that the time I spent with Laura is so much more important. My friends will just have to deal with stuff sitting out.
Now it’s time for me to start heading in the direction of bed. Tomorrow is going to be a great day.
