It's my 1st Surgiversary & I have BIG News!!!

Barb,

Thank you for the heartfelt words.  I do feel such remarkable joy over everything that has happened in the past year, and it's been wonderful walking this road with you.  :) 

Hugs back,

That is wonderful news Deb.  Congrats, I know you are excited.  I will be praying for you and your family for a safe and wonderful pregnancy and birth.  Also congrats on your Surgiversary, you have accomplished so much and have the greatest gift of all growing inside.

Rahsheeda

Thanks for the prayers Rahsheeda,  I'll definitely welcome all that you have to send!

See?  I knew I could keep a secret :-)

You did fabulous!!!  Thanks so much Andrea!  :)

Andrea has known for awhile because she's so active on the Pregnancy after WLS board.  I told that board right away so I could get some early advice, support, etc.  I told her we didn't want to share the news right away, and she promised she could keep a secret.  :)  Way to go!

Congrats!!!!! I know how happy you must be.  My daughter is one of the most rewarding things in my life.  I feel such pride as she grows and accomplishes her goals in life.  Even as a small child the encouragement and pride she give is so rewarding.  I just know you will love being a mom and will make a good one because you seem to be such a caring person.  Good luck and keep us posted on the wow moments

Thanks Leslie, I will make sure to keep you guys informed of the major milestones!  :)

Deb:

I am so happy for you! I know how much you have wanted this and your positive attitude has paid off. You have always been so positive in spite of not so good stuff happening and looked to the future and all it has to offer! You have taken such active steps in your life to get here and that is something to be so proud of. You courage and strength is phenomenal. I look forward to hearing about the upcoming months!

Lisa

Thanks Lisa,

Yes, we have wanted this all right!  :)  It's so nice to hear that you think of me as a positive person.  My mom was that way and she had a huge impact on my life, so it's always nice to hear that I have something in common with her.  :)

WOOOHOOOOOO!!! What wonderful news for you. I pray everything goes well for you and your husband. Now just think of all the cute 'little' preggy clothes you can wear!
GROUP HUG!!!
