My sister is my best friend. I am close to all my sisters, however this particular sister holds a very special place in my heart.I hate the reason we have become so close. We both are dealing with fertility issues. I hate that she has to endure the same pain that I have had to endure. I hate that her husband and my husband have bonded because they had to deal with two very crazy, hormonal ladies on some crazy medicine.
While I hate all of this--I am also thankful that I haven't had to go through it alone. Both our families and friends have been very supportive to us during this long process. Megan and Antwain have been there during some of the lowest of our lows...and unfortunately they understand how it feels. Yesterday at church while we were sitting there waiting for Mass to begin I looked over at them and realized how much I love them and how special they are to us. We have formed a bond that will never go away. Yesterday I prayed that we will be matched with a potential birthmother and that they have success with their treatments and that they happen around the same time so we can share in the next stage together...becoming moms and dads.
To Megan and Antwain:
I love you with all my heart. I am very thankful for our relationship and want you to know that no matter what happens, we are here for you and are excited for you. You mean the world to us and we look forward to the many years of friendship and family time!
I have always appreciated your words of encouragement and appreciated your shoulder when I could do nothing but cry. Lord knows we have shared many, many tears. I can't wait for them to be tears of joy!
Love you
Merle
