Saying goodbye... to a dream, and to you all (but not for long)

I'll start by explaining that, due to stupid telstra, we are changing internet and phone providers, so I'll be going off line for about 2 days, only to never (hopefully) be cut off from the internet again!!!

Also, after a long year of trying to convince myself that I did not want anymore children, it has come back to bite me in the butt! Yesterday, after congratulating one friend on the impending birth of baby number two, I found out yet another is also pregnant. I know 6 beautiful, mum-to-be's, and I cant shake the sadness that comes with my hubby's absolute ruling that another baby is NOT on the cards.
While I would agree that we have a gorgeous family already, the longing that resides in my heart for one more has not dissapated as I hoped it would. I spent most of last night trying hard not to be too upset, because I didnt want to guilt DH into making a decision I know he doesnt want to make, all the while feeling like I was missing out on something.
I am still rather teary eyed about it, and am asking God to help me, be my strength, and to hold onto the family I have! I dont know why I am so deeply saddened by it, knowing that DH wasnt interested in anymore kids... it seems to have hit me like a massive tonne of bricks.
So while I still hope that sometime in the not so distant future there is another bub in process for us in God's plan, I guess I'll have to "make do" with the blessings God has already brought forth from our love, and love them all the more! :)
