...I came home late from a work event, feeling a little off. Decided to take a pregnancy test. Waited two minutes as the hour-glass turned over and over. Felt my heart leap into my throat when the word "pregnant" appeared. In that instant, our lives changed forever.
"For a long time there were only your footprints & laughter in our
dreams & even from such small things, we knew we could not wait to
love you forever." -Story People
Yay! What a little miracle you've got there!
Coincidentally, I like this date, too - 10 years ago today Mark proposed to me. I must have said yes...

Hi Laura. You don't know me, but I came across your blog through twopeasinabucket. I, too, have a baby boy. You seem to balance work and baby and play so well. I, on the other hand, am having quite a tough time adjusting to being "back at work." I'd love to know some of your secrets:) And by the way, Charlie is adorable --- his cheeks remind me so much of my son's.

awwwwwww Laura!!!
Admittedly, I am starting to feel bad over here that I didn't recognize the timing had passed (for Lauren). Hard to believe that has been a year ago. I did take a picture of the pregnancy test that day. Still trying to decide if that is something to hang on to or just weird - ? LOL.
