One of those moments

I had one of those moments this week. You know, one of those moments you imagine when you start thinking about having a family. During the infertile years and then the adoption process years I had LOTS of time to imagine moments with a future child. One of the moments I would often imagine, especially around the holidays (which are a really sucky time when dealing with infertility, FYI), was attending my child's Christmas pageant. I would think about watching them up on stage singing out of key, or dancing around in a silly costume.

Two nights ago we went to L1's first Christmas pageant. It was awesome! I was beside myself with excitement the entire day waiting for the event. I had a ton of fun and L1 did a great job singing with the rest of the three year olds. It was , basically, everything I had hoped for and imagined. The icing on the cake was watching L1 while holding L2 in my arms. I truly do not know how I can be so fortunate as to be a mom to two such beautiful little girls. I may not be rich or gorgeous or famous or super talented, but I feel like the luckiest women that has ever lived.

L1 makes her performing debut.

Happy Holidays!
