For Those Who Are Waiting

Wendy at Our TX Adoption posted one of the most beautiful things I've read in a long time. Go on, take a look.

~~

It all resonated, even now, pre-placement, "You'll never lose that secret hope every time you ovulate. You'll never not get a bit sad when you start your period. You'll never stop secretly wondering what your biological baby would have looked like" really resonated. I do that now, pre-placement, knowing full well I'll never see that pesky little HPT with that particular brand good news.
And it's okay, it really is.
But the overarching idea of the post - be calm, it will happen, and will be something that's meant to be, and this you will know in your bones - is beautiful. The advice to really enjoy life pre-baby to the fullest is wise. That you will be resourceful, that your future will be fine, is reassurance we all need. Your career may not be what you originally conceptualized, but it will be where you're supposed to be.

Thanks, Wendy.
