Trendy Hitched

When the traffic has gone from bad to worse,  shopping bazaars sprout up like some plant in the wild, and finding a parking slot takes as much time as you finish an entire level of Angry Birds, you know for sure the holidays are coming. Yes, it’s that time of the year again. But before I let the scrooge in me come out, let me share with you my wish list for this season. I got tons actually (like world peace, first world internet connection, etc.) but this list is more realistic, meaning Santa (yes, you dear hubby ) could easily get it for me , so here goes.

Two days before my birthday, dear hubby surprised me with a little brown paper bag that already looked familiar. I could tell from the color of the paper bag that it is from that French brand we visited many times in Europe last March. No, I wasn’t shopping for myself back then but for a cousin who wanted a wallet. I remember telling hubby that with the small amount of money I have in that trip, I’d rather buy a purse than a wallet. So when he handed me the brown paper bag, I was ecstatic to find this inside:

I’m glad he picked the one I like the most. Thanks babe, you are the sweetest!

I never expected frustration comes with getting pregnant. I used to think that once I decide to have a baby, all I need to do is just wait nine months and viola, a bouncing baby appears before my eyes. I thought wrong obviously. We’ve been married for more than two years now but it was only late last year when I started to become baby-hungry. You see, I used to be scared getting pregnant. I was scared with the changes it will bring to my life, both personal and career. I remember crying over a pregnancy test while wishing to get a negative result. I wasn’t ready then. Today is different though. I am still not ready, that’s for sure. But the desire to have my own offspring is greater than ever. I am now willing to take a back seat in my career just to have my own little one. I don’t know how long it will take me in this journey. We are already on our fourth month and only God knows how long it will take more. Right now, I am just hoping it will happen soon. To You up there, please grant my wish. I promise to be a good mum.
