The Beginning of A Long Journey

I remember the day I walked into KSAT not realizing my life was about to change forever.

At the time I was dating my now husband and I had complained of being sick for about two weeks. I had stomach pains and was nauseous constantly (not just in the morning!!!)

One of the first questions the nurse asked me was a general question that is normally asked for women visiting the doctor..."Are you pregnant?"

I replied with a simple no as I had done everytime I visited the doctor.

I WAS mistaken!

I remenber hearing before that if one nurse leaves and two come back you are in for a shock! (something that happened many times over this journey)

...You guessed it! Two nurses came back in. I thought for sure I was dying of some disease. (I can become quite dramatic=))

One of the nurses (she was defnitely pregnant) relayed the news that I too was pregnant. Her face had shown so bright with a beautiful smile I couldn't help but smile back....
...and then came the tears.

This was not a joyous occasion for me because at the time I thought this is NOT what I wanted to hear, my life was over.

I was mistaken yet again! Little did I know how much I would come to love and cherish my beautiful daughter.

MY life was just beginning!
