Baby Boom

Everywhere is baby boom.  So this morning, I get a text from my old coworker who is expecting.  She wanted my address so the baby shower invitation can get sent out.  Great.  I wonder if I can go through with it.  Another baby shower.... I am sure I will be asked when I will be getting pregnant.  Yeah, I want to know that, too.  Call me party pooper, but I will probably buy a gift and let someone take it to her.

This afternoon was my dentist appointment, which I almost forgot all about.  When I saw the reminder popping up on my calendar, I had to wonder if I made that up.  Seriously, time has passed by so fast, I couldn't believe it.  When my hygienist  asked me if I were taking any medications, vitamins, or supplements, I said no.   I stopped writing down "prenatal vitamin" on the form, because quite frankly, it has become embarrassing.  Yeah yeah, taking all these prenatal vitamins month after month and still nothing to show for.  I'm sure she doesn't even remember I wrote "prenatal" in the past, but I remember.  She told me she might not see me for my next appointment.  When I asked her if she was looking for another job, she told me she was going on a maternity leave in a few months.  She didn't even look all that pregnant.  Ah how I envy her. There are pictures of her daughter on the wall.  She is having a boy.  One of each.  How nice.  At this point, I don't even care if I get a boy or girl.  I just want a baby.  I've always wanted a boy who looks like Tim.  Now, I don't care.  God, please just give me one already.  The rate the God is delivering babies left and right to all these people, it shouldn't be so damn difficult...

Dear God,
I am trying to follow up in regards to my previous baby request.  I understand you are busy, but if you could be so kind and take a moment and take a look at our request, we would really appreciate it.   If you need anything from us to help expedite the process, that would just be wonderful.
