One year ago today at 6:00 in the morning, I drove unshowered to Walgreens wearing sweatpants, hoodie, baseball hat, and four days of scruff. As I carried the pregnancy test to the front of the store, I thought about how classy I'd feel if I also bought some Swisher Sweets or a box of Hot Pockets.
We didn't have high hopes since just a couple days earlier Julie had tested negative. This time, however, before the three-minute wait time was up, before she had even finished washing her hands, the line blazed pink.
So one year later, if you see me at Walgreens at 6:00 in the morning, I'll still be wearing sweatpants, hoodie, baseball hat, and at least four days of scruff, but I'll be there to buy diapers. And possibly Hot Pockets.

Wow...6:00 in the morning seems pretty early, especially for a pregnancy test that you WANT to be positive...
Had to be there.
