It's been fun following you from the early days & seeing how your journey has evolved. I am coming up to 9 years of blogging (!!) this fall, and I am still amazed some days that I am still finding things to write about -- so you never know where this thing will take you...! Looking forward to reading more! :) loribethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09272814565916935113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6102758362320348657.post-4900502562460340832016-08-29T22:25:41.081-04:002016-08-29T22:25:41.081-04:00Thanks, Elaine!

I feel like there should be a disclaimer on the side of your blog now telling anyone who is new to infertility and needs to feel like someone else gets it to go back to the beginning. I remember the night I found your blog, I was melting down because my best friend was pregnant and showing my husband one of your posts and saying "THIS ! THIS EXPLAINS HOW I FEEL" because I couldn't. You (and I!) have definitely come a long way, and your blog as a whole is a really valuable resource for those going through this process. So Thanks for writing about it.

I'm sure you will have plenty more to write about - hopefully more ups than downs - because your voice is a valuable one. Congratulations on two years of thoughtful, painful, considerate writing!

My first year of blogging mainly dealt with visceral grief, but my second year has been a lot about reclaiming me.

I can honestly say that it's hard to run out of material, especially with things like family pictures coming up, so I look forward to reading your future posts! From this post, I loved this so much: "I've learned the importance of embracing grief, sitting with it, and working through it." I just love your voice and perspective.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15868505568965284742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6102758362320348657.post-62438703121547570852016-08-24T09:53:04.111-04:002016-08-24T09:53:04.111-04:00Happy blogoversary!
