I'm back from a break!

I took a little hiatus from my blog as I was getting tired of posting nothing but bad news. The last cycle I posted about did not turn into a pregnancy unfortunately. I am back at it with my wonderful IFs TTC! It has been an interesting cycle. We decided to step up our attemps and do more insems for a longer period. So, this past Saturday, S. came to Windsor and picked me up and brought me to Toronto. It was so nice to see their home as well as their first baby-their restaurant, The Sunset Grill at 1 Richmond St. Their home was as warm as they both are filled with their wonderful energy. You can litterally feel the love engulf you as you enter their appartment. They sat with me for a while and shared some pictures of family and friends. I really felt connected to them in that moment. Then when I saw their restaurant, I was so proud! I saw them in action running their restaurant. S. has such a way with people and keeps everything on the front end running smoothly and very gracefully puts things back together when they temporarily fall apart. F. is a magnificent cook and works the kitchen like he really owns it. I swear I thought someone had put him into fast-forward while I was watching him as he was working so quickly and efficiently! I kept thinking "You go boy!" After witnessing my IFs taking care of their restaurant I have such a respect for them. You can really tell a lot about a person by watching them work. My IFs both have plenty of respect, passion, kindness and gusto. If I had been concerned about them raising a child (which I had not been but had I been) all of my fears would have been allayed. My IFs are now here in Windsor with me for a couple of extra days of insems. We are all crossing our fingers that tomorrow is ovulation day so that we will have pegged it just right! My IFs can't stay past Wednesday as they need to get back to their restaurant. I am really, really, really hoping that we are suprised with a nice little surprise in about 10 months from this insem try! I know they will be a wonderful Papa and Daddy. I hope it will come true for them as of this try. I know how dedicated they are in doing whatever is needed to achieve their goal of having a baby. I think we are all getting tired of the TTC phase of our journey and are more-than-ready to feel and rejoice in the we're pregnant! phase!!! Woohoo!!! So let it be so!!!
