Yesterday, my friend Nicole told me that she is expecting. She was very sweet when she told me. She was very cautious and sensitive and was very careful about my feelings. I really appreciated how sensitive she was. I am so very very happy for Lee and Nicole. They will be another set of great parents. But Nicole understands that it is hard for me to hear about my friends conceiving so easily when I have been trying twice as long and hard as they (granted, it has not been TOO long for me). I don't want to be selfish and make my friends feel like they can't talk about their pregnancies around me. That's just not true. I'd love to hear about their pregnancies. It helps me know what to expect. :) I just told Nicole the same thing I told Sarah-- I may be sad for me, but I am so very happy for her. I appreciate her understanding, but I don't want her to protect me, so to speak.
This is such an exciting time in all of our lives. My two closest girl friends are both married (we were all married within the same year), and they are both pregnant. My husband and I are currently trying to start a family. We all have jobs and are trying to support ourselves without our parents' help. We're really growing up! It's really fun to have friends around my age (I'm actually older than Sarah and Nicole) who are in the same stage of life as I.
