My dream come true!
Hi all! Things are looking up right now. I just got back from a WPBA tournament in Durango Colorado. It was at the Sky Ute Casino and my family and I had a great time. My husband and I brought our eldest daughter Morgan and our youngest daughter Cheyenne. It was wonderful. I played well over all. I lost to Pan and in the semifinals, I lost to Kelly Fisher. I still feel as though I'm getting closer and closer to where I once was with my confidence. The difference is, I'm much more experienced and knowledgeable than I was when I was at my best. It's been all the practice that I've been doing. It's really given me more confidence which shows.
That's not the greatest news though. It's that in 3 weeks, October 7th, we are expecting a baby girl, our first biological child together. I have two stepdaughters (Morgan and Olivia) and two adopted (John and Cheyenne). One day, I will tell you about our infertility journey that we've endured but for now, we will just rejoice and praise God. I really stopped believing that it could ever happen. I'm so fortunate to know Angie Risen-White and her husband Jerry, who are both incredible people that are voluntarily giving us this gift. I can't imagine it. What she must think or feel to be able to give this kindness to whom, a year ago, she didn't even know.
I've really been holding back a little. With all our disappointments, there's been a small insecure feeling that this isn't really happening and something terrible might happen. I don't want to think about it. I want to enjoy this. And as we get closer and closer, I feel myself getting happier and happier.
My daughter Cheyenne named her Chloe, after the main character in "Beverly Hills Chuhuahua" the movie. I named her middle name after Angie, our surrogate and my last name. Chloe's middle name will be Angelee. I just can't wait.
Don't worry. I won't forget pool. I've already set up a schedule so that I can practice atleast four hours a day while someone helps watch the baby and Cheyenne and John are in school. (Our two eldest have already flown the coop) I've left
