Even numbers, good luck

Sure I only waited one day.

I told myself - and Joshua - that I'd wait til mid-week, one full week after Fred's failed appearance. Give it time. Time, time, time. I don't do "time". I'm impatient. I don't like surprises. I need to know everything and I need to know it now.

Monday morning, Joshua is already off to school, and I reach for The Cup and The Test. 20 seconds, 2 minutes.

Oh, hello blue line, I've been waiting for you.

First step was to take a picture of The Test - and the instructions - for Joshua. A quick "I-told-you-so" and "keep-your-mouth-shut" lovingly-crafted e-mail later and I'm scurrying off to work... wondering how I'm going to keep MY mouth shut.

This is good news, and I want to share. Until the first ultrasound. At least.

I call my doctor. They schedule my first appointment for March 16. Definitely not soon enough for me to keep my mouth shut. Not by a long shot.

That afternoon I bought Pregnancy Books. And I called mom. It felt great to tell her.
