No Itching Here May 16, 2005

Seven years ago today my husband and I said “I do.” Isn’t the 7th anniversary the time where the itching begins? Well, no such thing is happening here. I’ve never felt more itchless in my life.

I’ve said this before, but it bears repeating. I am so thankful that dealing with this infertility crap has strengthened my marriage. I know that’s not always the case. I think that’s the main thing that allows me to keep at this stuff. I never doubt that no matter what happens with regards to infertility and IVF that my marriage will always be there as strong as ever. Knowing that I will always have my husband to lean on when the world around us seems to be crumbling gives me the strength to forge on.

I very well may be calling on the strength of my marriage to get me through yet another tough time in the upcoming days. Of course I’m scared shitless to go through all of that again. The thought of experiencing that kind of heartbreak again is almost too much, but I know that we’ll make it. I know in my heart that we will, no matter how hard it may be at the time. We will make it.

Happy Anniversary Dan! I love you to pieces.

Happy Anniversary! So, y’all got married around your birthday……….do you still get two presents? :)

I am thinking of you so much.

Happy Anniversary my dear! May your marriage be blessed with children and DAMN SOON! :-)

Hey, my best friend’s seventh wedding anniversary is today, too. While you were getting married, I was suffering through a ceremony with a hideous grey satin bridesmaid’s frock and a bird’s nest on my head from the awful hairdresser. Just thought I’d share….

Happy anniversary to you and Dan! May you have another 70+ plus years (since we’re talking denominations of 7 here).

I know what you mean about infertility making your marriage stronger. I don’t know how I would have survived everything (even stuff outside of IF) without A by my side….

Much love to you both :-)
