It is with much fear...

... and a little excitement that I ask you all to send me some of that dust... but only for the month of September!!
We figure, what have we got to lose?? If it doesn't happen in September, we will wait till January to 'get dusted' again so that I will not have to worry about not beginning the school year next fall.
Thanks everyone!

Don't be afraid, Jenn! This is wonderful news!
Here's my contribution (I'm so glad I get to be the first!)

They say the time you are ovulating is '14 days BEFORE the next menstrual pd begins',. You REALLY have to know your cycles to predict that 'day' and then again not everyone ovulates 'on time', but they say to try for a few days 'around' what 'should be' 14 days from your next pd. Some people beleive 'trying' every other day (within that week time frame of what '14 days away' could be) is best, some beleive every day is best...

JUST FOR FUN, heres a 'calulator' of what days are 'best' but again, dont use this as a bible, just to give you an idea...

I say just have fun with it and dont make yourself nuts with counting days... It usually happens when you least expect it :)

I hope i didnt confuse you (its confusing to me too, I couldnt be bothered with it, but just thought i'd throw it out there!)
I never counted my 'cycle days' as lots of girls do, so I really didnt know what day was what, and counting days too much can make you crazy, just DO IT (as NIKE says, LOL) and LOTSS OF LUCK to ya !!

Thanks everyone!!

Claud, thanks for the first dust sprinkling!!

Michelle I am scared AND excited, don't worry! Oh and I have a Brandon in my class this year, and WHAT A CUTIE!!! Must be the name...

Deb, thanks for listening to my email ramblings... you're too good to me! My email should be cleaned out and running by tonight, so LOOK OUT!

Cira, Thanks, and may the dust blow your way too, when you are ready!

Anna, don't worry, I'm already confused! But the calculator is fun to play with,and at least it gives me a rough idea. We figure the best thing to do is just relax and see what happens, because I don't think I could deal with the pressure of saying 'okay we are READY!' because I'm an instant gratification kind of person, and we all know THAT'S not likely!

Sooooo here we go, down the road to being a family!!!!

Oh, and Deb?? Here's a GREAT BIG handful of dust for YOU!!!!
