Well I suppose after 5 years of TTC you come to a point when you ask yourself this question: "What is is that is most important to us, being pregnant or having a child?"
We asked and answered this question recently and decided that being parents was more important than getting pregnant. So we are now planning to foster to adopt. Our orientation meeting is this week and we are so excited!
I just ran across your blog and wanted to say congratulations! I'm an infertile myrtle myself, and we just got a precious baby boy in our home 7 weeks ago through foster care. I don't think I could love him more! It's a wild ride, but so worth it. And really, just thinking what a privilege it is to get to be mom to this little one who so needs one, that's such a great feeling. Go you!
