Valentine's Day 2010

I am starting my blog today, Valentine's Day and hope everyone is having a wonderful day! My valentine is at work until 8pm, although I do have 2 mini valentines here to keep me company. I want to use my blog to get things off of my mind. If anyone does decide to read my blog they may be surprised to find I am not exactly who they thought unless they are my best friend Jason or my sister Jessica. It was questionable to start today of all days. Every year everyone asks "What did you get for Valentine's Day?" So many times I have gotten strange looks when I say "We don't celebrate Valentine's Day." Some think my husband is cheap or whatever... I don't care what they think, we had our reasons and its no ones business. So here it is.....10 years ago today, Jason and I lost our first baby. It was Valentine's Day and everything was fine, we both went to work and later that morning I had to go to the doctor to be told that the baby I had been carrying for 3 months was gone. Well not gone, but the exact words were "I'm sorry but there is no heartbeat." We then were sent to a room to wait for the doctor who actually forgot I was there and went to lunch, and an hour and a half later was told he would do surgery the next day. So there it is, our reason for not celebrating this day. But since we have had 2 wonderful girls and we now celebrate it for them. WOW! I am really not trying to depress anyone, I had no idea what I was going to write when I sat down today. But if you want to know about my life, you have to take the good with the bad! And by the way I did get roses and a balloon and will be getting some very pretty earrings! Now I'm off to cook dinner and give my girls a bath, I hope to have daily entries for the next 30 days! I hope you plan to join me so I can get that adult interaction I need!
