Saying good-bye to 2011

Another year comes to and end and here we are with so much going on.  In the last couple of years I've had hernia repair surgery and gall bladder removal and we've avoided having another child not knowing what this would do to my body not to mention how it would affect fetal development.  After talking to one of the general surgeons about my case and what kind of issues can come from getting pregnant and carrying to term.  So  Josh and I are trying to have another baby.  This year Josh retired from the Navy and is currently attending law school.  The rough part of this year was losing the person I considered to be my maternal grandmother and miscarrying a child.  The coming year brings with it a breath of better things to come.  Josh and I will be trying for another child.  Eric thankfully is growing big and healthy, since speech therapy his vocabulary has amplified greatly.  I'm still struggling with staying focused on school and such but I'm hanging in there as much as possible.  Josh will be returning back to school in a few days and getting in to the second semester of his first year.  He's stressing grades and the grading system and I think he's kind of selling himself short.  From here on out we only look forward!  We seem to be doing well working with what we have.  We truly are blessed.
