12 hours from now I will hopefully know if I am pregnant or not.
Last night during the storm I remembered again what the phrase "two made one" means. That was the theme for our wedding. Last night I huddled in a church nursery room with a lot of people. Apparently there were 75mph straight line winds close enough to us that some of us saw the power lines being ripped down. next a vortex was headed straight from us. I was not too worried, having grown up in Texas I am used to these life and death experiences. : ) That and we were in a house of God.
Then I heard that all this mess was headed to Wylie, where Jesse was. Now I was filled with fear. I could stand losing my own life but to lose my husband's life was a completely unbearable thought. I stayed on the phone through most of it, all the while begging Jesse to take cover in the bathroom and STAY there. "No, don't go look at the storm from the front porch," I kept saying. In the end our neighbors lost some large tree branches and that was the worst of it.
Four and a half years ago Jesse and I vowed to love each other forever. At the time I didn't think our love could be more than it was at the time but it is. Our love has survived bad weather, cancer, career changes, and time; now I hope that it will have to survive pregnancy and a baby.
I love you Jesse!
