This is not an uncommon feeling. While it may be difficult and pull us in multiple directions at the same time it's very common around here. So many of us are so excited for those around us who don't have the struggle but at the same time we see that it's once again a blessing we don't have. The one thing I've had to teach myself is that it's not about me. I used to cry for weeks when a friend told me she was pregnant (in the 4 years since we've been trying we are up to baby #29 being born around us) and I'd be just miserable. I try to look at it from another stand point. I'm blessed to have children in my life, all around me, even if they aren't mine. When my time comes I'll be ready for my blessing and never take a single moment for granted but I have to live my life and not let infertility live it for me. Does that make sense?
