1 year
One year ago today our lives changed forever.
It was a Sunday morning and my period was late, but I didn't think anything of it because I had all the usual pre-period symptoms. But I'd been throwing up for the past few days, and just didn't feel right.
So I took a test when I woke up.
We had plenty on hand. We were trying.
And before I even finished washing my hands, there were 2 lines lookin' up at me from the stick.
I ran out of the bathroom with it gasping, "Two lines! Two lines! Where are the directions? Where are the directions?" I had taken pregnancy tests before; I knew what two lines meant. I think I was temporarily a little loony.
I couldn't read the directions from the pregnancy test kit because they were fluttering in my hands too much, so I shoved them over to Andy, who glanced at the stick and said, "We did it!"
Then, in a very surreal gesture, he high-fived me.
One year ago today, this was.
