Hope Springs Eternal

My husband is the eternally positive one. He is sure we will get our baby soon.

Yesterday I received a subscription offer from a popular parenting magazine. It was a good offer, but I have no children. Sadness overcame me when I read it, then wonder as to how they got my details. But sadness prevailed and I left it on the table and walked away to do something else, and keep my mind busy.

Later I went looking for it as it is paper week for our rubbish collection, and I wanted to add it to the pile. It was gone. I asked hubby and he said "I filled it in and have it ready for posting". I questioned him as to why he would do such a thing and this was his beautiful response:

"Because it was a good offer, and although we don't have children now, this subsciption goes for 12 months and we will surely have a child by then or be well in the process of it"

After nearly 3 years of infertility, 1 miscarriage and lots of crying (from me), he still thinks we can do this - and in a reasonable timeslot too - Gotta love him (I do).
