Today’s guest is a new dear friend Wendy from Choosing Love, Arizona Moms Network, Heart Prints, Sunflowers Photography,!!  Yes that is right 4 Blogs!!  How she does this I do not know!!! Amazing is all I can say.  I met Wendy a couple of months ago and instantly adored her!!  She is wonderful, kind, understanding and brilliant!!  I had the opportunity to spend more time with her a week or so ago at Bloggy Boot camp in Las Vegas.  I was able to soak in all her radiance and it was just splendid!!  I am so thrilled she is here today sharing her “PINK” story with us today!!
 
One simple test.
Two straight lines.
 
Without any warning, my path to motherhood began.
 
I never wanted to find out the gender of my child-to-be.
 
But then the big “C” entered our life.
My father’s health was failing.
Cancer gave us few days.
Only a miracle would allow him to see his first-born grandchild.
 
So I changed my mind.
 
The physician said “100% girl” during the ultrasound.
Our little baby suddenly became our little girl.
 
 
My husband and I talked and dreamed during the 1,150 mile drive home.
All those long, dark sections of road eventually led to Daddy’s house.
By the time we arrived, she had a name.
 
My father was the first one we told.
 
He bought her a beautiful pink dress.
But he was not convinced.
He just shook his head.
 
“It is not a girl.”
 
He was serious.
I did not believe him.
 
I was six months along in my pregnancy when my father took his last breath.
 
A few days after his funeral service an ultrasound gave us another look at our little girl.
Only she wasn’t a girl.
At all.
She was a he.
 
Oh how those two pink lines changed my life.
Even if they turned out to be blue.
