The fifth human

It was cold, it was late and I was overwhelmed with emotions. I had not had a cycle in nearly 2 months and with all the hustle and bustle of the beginning got the year, it kind of slipped my mind. I was tempted to tell Joe of my anxiety, however I wanted to be sure that it was a pregnancy and not something else. What if it was a health related issue? Joe was in the middle of the Golden Gloves, I did not want to worry him with anything right now. What do I do?

A positive test. I cried. I’m happy. I’m terrified. I’m 36. What is this going to be like?

In the morning, I wake up with tears. I finally tell Him. He hugs me, kisses me, and says “We’re going to be fine”. He smiles, He’s already anxious to meet you.

The best partner I could have ever dreamed of.

We’re having a baby.
