FIVE

I was standing on the scale willing away a few more of these pregnancy pounds and thinking of how much I've been up and down in my weight the past few years with the three pregnancies when it hit me...I got my first positive test FIVE years ago this month, so I've had Kate with me for five years now. WOW!

I remember it so clearly. I was shaking holding the test with two little lines. I couldn't get Justin awake and had to go to work without telling him our secret. The joy of telling everyone. It was an amazing time.

And so began my adventures in motherhood. It's been a ride full of excitement, learning, and so much more.
