Zoltar

So last night after a day of work, Andrew and I jumped in the car for a drive. We went to a baby store to look at furniture only to find out that the store was going out of business in a month. The lovely honest business owner told us he'd take a deposit on the furniture.... and said another store in a different state would deliver it whenever we wanted it. Hmmmmm, yes so I wasn't born yesterday buddy, although for being in the business for 35 years, its pretty remarkable that he too said "Wow, you barely look pregnant." Once again, I realized how unique our circumstances are in this area where we live, California here we come! Just kidding Mom....for now. Andrew and I moved on to the next baby store and took our time there, we saw so many different colors for bedding and swatches of colors for the wall. We continued our exploration by pushing every button on the baby toys and touching every soft little blanket that they had on the floor....I couldn't tell who had more fun! We finished up our trip and were famished! So, there was a P.F. Changs right around the corner. We sat down with our newly purchased book of names and began to glance through it, of course putting names in that we thought were ridiculous too. Our eyes were of course bigger than our stomachs, and we had food to take home with two fortune cookies. Andrew opened his when we got home from our adventure and read it aloud. Fortune: "Good news of long awaited event will arrive soon." Soon? Really!?!? Ahhhhh, the magical fortune cookie that held all of our answers, hahahaha, If I only knew all along! Although, you know what....it meant something to us. We DO know that however long it takes, it will be soon. Two years ago, I would have taken that fortune cookie to a whole new level....now I can just smile and enjoy the ride. So our fortune is not in how soon our child will arrive, its about what we have gained already from this journey......with so much more to come....gotta love a good fortune cookie.

Any takers who would like to take a wild guess at where I got Zoltar from???
