I- Infertility



We are coming up on the National Infertility Awareness Week:

I know some women don't like to be labeled.  I guess, neither do I, but since I'm labeling myself, I guess it's ok.

I'm a daughter
(with the owner of the chocolate factory we toured)


I'm a sister

I'm a wife
 (not just a wife, an Air Force wife, who won spouse of the year!)


I'm a builder.

I'm a friend.

I'm a teacher

I'm infertile

And because of this...there is one label that escapes me.

Mother.

  2. I love the photo of you and your brother! I hated being the only girl with three brothers when I was younger, but now it's awesome. They are the best.
