tick, tick, tick

This morning I was at a Relief Society thing taking in a few classes in an effort to become more domestic. The cupcake decorating class was very unstructured, just people frosting cupcakes and chitchatting. Which of course, at church tends to make me feel like this:

But anyways, there is a new young pregnant girl who just moved into my ward. Her husband is here for (...wait for it...) dental school. Someone asked her if she has found a good Ob-Gyn yet and she mentioned that she is going to the practice where I went when I was pregnant with Isaac.

For some reason (I'm blaming PMS), just hearing her say that really hit a chord with me and I found myself welling up with tears. I think it was one part wistful nostaglia and one part brazen envy. I wonder if I will ever get a chance to excitedly tell someone that I am seeing Dr. Segal and my baby is due in a few weeks.

I turn 30 in a few weeks and it just feels like time is passing by at a breakneck speed. I'm worried that I will never have that opportunity, or if I do that my ovaries will be totally stalled out.

Blah..

i totally get how you feel. that being said, i know its difficult not to focus on how things ARENT the way you want them to be, but they certainly can turn around and be exactly what you need/want. how to get from a to b? dont ask me. i have no clue, but i have faith it is doable. i have to, or else i woiuld drive off a cliff.

That would be awkward. Good for you for going, though! And hey, you could drown your awkward sorrows in cupcakes when you were done. See, the Lord provides. :)
