Please Don't Ask

I get it. I know we just passed 4 years. The "pursuit of happiness checklist" says Get married. check. Buy house. Check. Adopt furbabies. Check. Have babies. Open space. But you probably have no idea what that side bar of open space entails. I'm just going to be frank and say that not only am I tired of hearing it, I'm truly not sure how much longer my heart can handle the obligatory, "Not yet. We have some other things we would like to accomplish first." Then it sinks and silently cries, "probably never." Bless my sweet patients for trying to make conversation, but I would much rather talk about them and usually quickly reroute conversation. The fair's approaching and as excited as I am, I'm considering taping my answer to that question and just pushing play so that I can avoid the reminder. On the other hand, it's absolutely exhausting attempting to avoid some social situations to avoid the questions. No I don't really want to talk about why. No none of my lady parts are broken (that I am aware of). Nor his parts.

Well Said, Dan Pearce

"#4 – Jessica wrote, “do you want more children?”

This is a tough question. I do want more children. At least a couple more. But more than that I want love. Real love. My life love. And I want to have children with the person I love more than anyone I’ve ever loved, and who loves me just as much. If I can’t find that, then I don’t think I’d want more children because sharing that experience with my soul mate (yes, I believe in soul mates, and I believe I’ll find mine) is about the sexiest thought ever."

This had me in so many tears tonight.

Good for you! Good for this world! You are great!


Can't lie.

Want this sooo bad. Not right now. Not sure how. Someday. Longing.
