28F in Tennessee just wanting to get married and start a big family with the love of my life. It's my dream to be barefoot and pregnant for the next 20 or so years, and I'm looking forward to the day my future husband and I can start the big family we desire.

How's your dad doing?

He is doing so much better, thanks for asking! It ended up being that he only needed the two surgeries and is now on the mend. We were actually able to bring him home from the hospital today, which seems like amazing news based on the limited internet research I did. The surgeon who operated on him told him before the surgery that he would not survive the day if he didn’t get the operation. Thankfully, he listened and it seems they got it all.

Now he just has antibiotics and a wound vac, which is something I’d never heard of before, and we are figuring out exactly what to do to help him recover as best we can, like how to set him up to work from home for a while, and what kinds of things we can do to keep him from getting too bored at home.

This completely unrelated to my blog, and it’s going to be a very personal post, but I just need some place to put it.

My dad is in the hospital fighting a severe infection. It turns out one of the medicines he was on can cause this if the person taking it isn’t super careful. He had/has an abscess, and they did a first emergency surgery on Thursday afternoon to clean it out. They did a second one yesterday to make sure they got it all, and will be checking today to see if they need to operate again.

It’s definitely a crappy way to spend time that we thought we’d be on vacation, but I am so thankful for God’s provision in having him come to the emergency room when he did instead of continuing to ignore the problems he was having. The doctors have said he could have been close to sepsis, and we wouldn’t really have known. Hopefully he will get over this and be able to come away from this experience fully healed. At this point I’m not sure if he’s even out of the woods yet though.

It’s Father’s Day today. I find myself wondering what the future father of my children is up to today. I wonder what you’re doing, what you’re thinking about today. There isn’t a day that goes by that I’m not thinking of you, the man I’m going to marry someday. But today, today is different.

Are you thinking about the day you become a father? Are you thinking about your own father? Are you lamenting lost time and maybe lost loved ones? Are you looking with excitement and anticipation toward the future?

Regardless, happy Father’s Day to the man who will be the father of my children, and to all the fathers and father figures out there. Someday I’ll be planning Father’s Day surprises with our little ones, and that day can’t come soon enough for me.

Wishing you the best, hopefully you are blessed with that family you crave soon! Gods timing will be right for you.

Love a newly pregnant mama who was in the same situation.

Thank you! Your words have definitely been an encouragement to me today as I’ve thought and prayed about…everything.

Congrats on the baby! I wish and will pray for a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby 😊

Although I don't know what you look like, sometimes I think about you being pregnant. Whether you're all dressed up in makeup and a skirt or hanging around the house in an old pair of jeans and a top, I want a girl like you in my life Mama Bear. I want a good wife to have by my side and to have a family with, someone with sense and a kink for pregnancy. I and others like me exist, we're out there. As you're reading this I want you to pull your shirt up and look at your bare stomach for a moment. Place your hand around your navel.

Right now your womb is empty but some day someone like me will come along and you'll be bursting with life growing inside of you. One day you'll be getting an ultrasound done or you'll be trying on a bikini because it's the only thing that fits your belly. You'll look down at your stomach again and think back to this moment. That same stomach you're caressing now in the present will transform into the belly you'll have then. You're a girl worth loving Mama Bear and therefore a girl worth making a baby with. No doubt you won't be a hot mama.

In the meantime keep a look out in the real world or Tumblr and whatnot, you may meet that man. You deserve to be loved and swollen with child. It's not a pipe dream. Until I write something for you again...

Thank you for these kind words, Anon. They are more appreciated than you know.

I just want to get married and have kids. Why does that seem like too much to ask?

I had a dream last night where I was pregnant. The worst part was waking up and realizing it was just a dream that wasn’t true.
