The Hall's are TTC!
My husband and I have been together since we were seniors in high school. We were in college and engaged at 19 and married at 21. We're a military family so we move often and sometimes not often enough. Making the decision to get pregnant wasn't always easy. I've wanted kids for quite some time now but Joseph wanted to wait...and keep waiting. Eventually I stopped asking and we didn't talk about it anymore. One day just after Joseph came home from his latest deployment, we're driving to Lowes and talking about little things to do to the house. He's talking about this and that, I admit I wasn't giving him my full attention. All of a sudden I hear the word "baby", and I've never shifted to fast in my seat in my life. He had my full attention at this point and I ask "What about babies?". He laughs and says "I had to say something to get your attention." I naturally glare at him for bringing up a sore subject and continue looking out the window. We stop at a stop light and he turns to me and this is what his says to turn my world upside down: "I was saying that I don't want to wait anymore, and we should try at the end of the year." I remember staring at him and saying "Are you serious?" . It was a happy moment, not because I was getting what I've wanted but because we're finally on the same page. That little stressor in our lives was lifted and slowly fading away. Now we're hoping a little baby boy or girl to join our family sometime this year.
