talking about our long journey with infertility &amp;amp; longer held hopes&#xD;
of being parents. My miscarriage almost took me off this planet because&#xD;
of my sadness. Adoption was supposed to be so easy, (wanting a baby&#xD;
with any amount of African American blood decreases wait time&#xD;
significantly), but we've had 2 Mothers decide to parent after we flew&#xD;
out to get the babies. We even named our son. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We were so sure&#xD;
our Christmas card this year would finally be with our child in our&#xD;
arms. So, my husband blurts out "You know how I buy an ornament&#xD;
just for you &amp;amp; I every year? I just haven't been able to do it. I&#xD;
keep thinking 'Come on man she's expecting it. She loves that.' I just&#xD;
can't do it because I had it all planned- it would say all of our names." &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now my husband ain't no softie. Hearing this hurt me to my&#xD;
core. I didn't let any tears well up because I wanted to let him talk.&#xD;
We stopped @ an antique shop I 'd found previously, had some coffee... &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Feeling better, we jumped back in the car. He&#xD;
put on his ipod, read the newspaper, &amp;amp; I, at the wheel, starting&#xD;
thinking...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I thought about you and your Dec 7 post about not feeling&#xD;
Christmassy this year &amp;amp; that yes indeed, you again find yourself&#xD;
broken. I thought about how much I love my husband &amp;amp; how much he&#xD;
loves me, but there are few comforting words. I tried to figure out&#xD;
what made me get up out of bed when all I wanted to do was just be out&#xD;
of pain &amp;amp; I realized that it is simply because life goes on, as you&#xD;
said, that I had to get up. It's not like I would lay there &amp;amp; find&#xD;
any joy or be released from pain. The choices are lay there and hurt or&#xD;
get up &amp;amp; hurt but at least have something to maybe smile at for a&#xD;
little while. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I look at your beautiful loving face today holding&#xD;
Princess Nina Gabrielle and smiling. No one would know the hole in your&#xD;
heart. I know Monica. I wanted you to know I've never stopped hoping&#xD;
for you. Praying for you. I still BELIEVE for you. I sometimes imagine&#xD;
the joy, the CELEBRATION when your belly is finally all swollen, &amp;amp;&#xD;
it can bring me to tears. I do not know what will or won't be. There&#xD;
are NO WORDS that change or make it any better. Still, you are a&#xD;
beautiful soul &amp;amp; I'm grateful that you are a part of my journey,&#xD;
wherever it leads.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;Blessings&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;QUESTION: Anybody recognize this wanna be Mack Daddy with his slick azz? His greezy, sad azz had a quote talking about he was interested in intelligent, tall women.&amp;nbsp; UGH!&amp;nbsp; I'm sick of
Facebook pimping and shall be putting their azzes on &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 25px;"&gt;PUBLIC&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; blast
EVERY.SINGLE.TIME.THEY.TRY.IT.FROM.NOW.O&lt;/span&gt;N. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="photocaption_text"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yall have been warned. This fugger was friends with several of my
friends so I approved him. Next day...he wants to start trying to get
his shine on. I am NOT in the mood. You are NOT Tiger Woods and I am
NOT some dirty ho looking for some nasty. Some of us have our morals
FIRMLY intact!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you know this fugger...let his woman know what he's up.&amp;nbsp; Not using his real name but using his picture thinking he slick.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yeah...Imma start putting ALL of them on blast so I really hope someone warns them REAL.SOON about touching the SIP.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;NOT.THE.ONE.HUN!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
