Rose has the best taste in baby clothes, she came home with this little gem the other day. It reads “this is our greatest adventure”. Couldn’t agree more. It’s beginning. I’m finally recovered enough from surgery to begin walking again. I’m tapering off my high dose contraceptive pill to a low dose one (quick changes in hormones send me into severe depression). And I’ve started on folic acid, iron, and skin care for stretch marks (dry skin, eczema, dermatitis, hives, hot weather, and pregnancy weight gain do not make for a happy person).

It’s scary, exciting, wonderful, confusing, sad, strange, moving, and uncomfortable. Definitely an adventure. We’re making our maps up as we go, having amazing experiences, getting lost, sometimes falling off cliffs. There’s no one I’d rather be off exploring with. 🙂
