I don't think I will ever forget that day for more than one reason.

I left work early to go home and get ready to go to one of my best friend's wedding. I have known him for 20 years. He was one of the very first people I met on my first day of second grade. He's been a great friend. That wasn't until recently because he was such a booger growing up.

I had stopped off at Target to get a card and a couple of over the counter pregnancy tests. I was a couple of days late but I really wasn't too worried about it. We had been careful or so we thought.

What a surprise when I saw this staring back at me. Those lines came up so quick. I thought something was wrong with the tests.

Yes, I took 3. I didn't believe the first one or the second or the third. I had to call my friend V because I was in such a huge stage of shock. The good kind of shock. She laughed at me and was very happy. We squeed on the phone.

I tried to get ready to go to the wedding but I couldn't think of anything else but those plus signs. I kept going from the closet to the counter and staring at them.

That is how the hubs found me. He scared the living crap out of me because I didn't hear him come in.

I told him, "Guess what?" He said, "You are pregnant." I said, "Yes." I showed him the tests. We hugged & kissed and told me to get ready because we were going to be late. Ha! Gotta love my husband.
