Read part one HERE
Sorry it has taken me awhile to write part II but I was going back and forth on how I was going to start the story. Sounds odd doesnt it? You think, just start the story. Its your story.. start from where part one left off... Most of you dont know the next part of our story and after contiplating on what to say I decided to be real and honest. I have regret over how it came to be but absouluely no regrets with the end result. Confused yet? Read on and allow me to explain:
Last we left off I was driving home after seeing Joe excited about what was in our future. He was leaving for Qatar in a few weeks time and I was sad to see him go.
(I am in no way shape or form condoning my actions but it did happen) Couple weeks passed and Joe and I consummated our relationship. Believe it or not in the years past he and I never did anything. We had a normal, clean dating relationship. We decided to wait. That is until after I saw him again. (this is where the regret comes into play. I was raised better than that, I knew it was wrong but I went ahead and did it anyway. I do regret not waiting. We had waited for so long but I lost my willpower. I was trying to make it right in my head by saying I love Joe. I know we will be togther forever and he's being deployed in a few weeks.)
Moving on: Whew that was a hard paragraph to write. All those who didnt know... no judging please.
Joe left for his deployment and 4ish weeks later I was feeling weird. Tired wasnt even the right word it was more like exhausted to the 100th degree. I could not function and working 50 hrs a week was not helping. My heart was palpatating so I decided to go to the Dr to see what in the world was going on. June 10, 2005 I got the call at work that changed my life. The nurse on the other end told me that my pregnancy test came back positive. Please excuse me while I pick myself up off the floor. You have GOT to be kidding me. There is no way I was pregnant. Oh, there was a way and now I had to break the news to Joe and even worse, my parents. Dread took over my entire body.
How would you like to recieve news that you are going to be a dad? Well over the phone of course. Joe called and I broke the news to him. I wish I was able to see the shock on his face when he heard the news. Fast forward to late August and we were married. We knew we would eventually get married but with the current situation we decided to speed up the process.
The next few months were filled with Dr visits and we eventually welcomed Miss Ava in the winter of 2006. She was the "end result" that I in no way shape or form regret. She was the jewel that came out of Joe and I's actions and we couldn't have been more happy.
And they are living happily ever after....
Enjoy your family~
