It’s 11/11 (Part Two)

A yearly tradition…

November 11th.  11/11.

Make a wish.

Here’s how this works: (1) Make a wish in the comment section (and don’t believe that stuff about how if say it aloud it won’t come true.  That is precisely when the parts that are within another human being’s control can come true).  (2) Then leave a comment on the blog of the commenter directly before you (so it’s a chain.  #2 comments on #1, #3 comments on #2, etc. If the commenter above you didn’t leave an address, just go one above that.  The point is to find new blogs/leave a comment–not stress).

The first person who comments on this post gets a free ride and does not need to leave any comments.  The last person who comments on this post gets … screwed.

It would be nice within your comment to refer to their wish (if it ties in to the post you read and comment on) and if you can grant any part of it, to do so.  If you can’t, because their wish is outside of human control, don’t feel badly.  But if you have the power to grant a wish, why not do it?

Am I first? I wish that my husband and I would find a great home to live in, in the Chicago suburbs by January.

I wish this cycle works out.

So do we get TWO wishes next year, since it’ll be 11.11.11?

3 serenity { 11.11.10 at 8:12 am }

dammit, soapchick commented first. I’m off to her blog now…

4 Megan { 11.11.10 at 8:28 am }

I wish that my cycle would start back up again. It’s been 8 weeks since I stopped lactating, and I haven’t seen AF yet. I was hoping for just one more baby.

5 Delenn { 11.11.10 at 8:37 am }

I wish for some help in the finances department of our household, please.

6 Sarah { 11.11.10 at 8:42 am }

Wishing for baby #2 to be easier than the perfect baby #1.

7 Mrs. P { 11.11.10 at 9:01 am }

I wish that this FET cycle (our 6th attempt) results in the much longed for baby(ies)!

8 Katie { 11.11.10 at 9:04 am }

I wish by this time next year to have most of our debt paid off so we can start working on making a baby again!

9 a { 11.11.10 at 9:07 am }

I’m wishing for about 12 million things right now…but I’ll go with a successful round of IVF for the purposes of this game.

Mrs. P – you didn’t leave a blog to follow back to! 🙁

10 Rebecca { 11.11.10 at 9:14 am }

I wish our new RE will be the key for me to get pregnant and stay that way until we have a healthy little one.

11 Mrs. Farmer { 11.11.10 at 9:23 am }

I wish that I could feel comfortable bringing the “can we try again” convo up again with the hubbs. It’s so stressful in our family life right now. I just feel like if I open my mouth about wanting to go back to the RE it will push him over the edge…

12 Jessica Harris { 11.11.10 at 9:27 am }

I’m wishing my thyroid biopsy tomorrow goes smoothly and comes back benign.

13 anne_sk { 11.11.10 at 9:31 am }

My list of wishes is so long right now. I think I would like to wish for clarity, so that I can see the answer to all of the issues that are plaguing me right now (job situation, actual chances at child #2, grandmother’s health).

14 Michelle { 11.11.10 at 9:36 am }

I wish for a family of my own by next Christmas.

15 Sami { 11.11.10 at 9:37 am }

I hope maybe just maybe… this whole trying for number 2 works out… without bloodshed and a lot of heartache.

16 Roccie { 11.11.10 at 9:38 am }

Please let me POAS obsession result in a healthy take home baby.

17 manymanymoons { 11.11.10 at 9:59 am }

I am wishing for a day of being content with where we are in our process. That has not been easy for me to come by lately so that’s my wish.

18 twangy { 11.11.10 at 10:05 am }

I wish the universe would smile on my lovely adoption group.

19 Sunshine { 11.11.10 at 10:07 am }

I wish that we don’t have to wait long before someone will pick us and we’ll be home with a baby soon.

20 The Barreness { 11.11.10 at 11:14 am }

I wish that my show BARREN: life on infertile soil, is selected by another gallery by next year and can start its journey to many cities.

21 Scout { 11.11.10 at 11:24 am }

I wish to give my family the best Christmas gift ever – a pregnancy announcement from DH and I.

22 Scout { 11.11.10 at 11:26 am }

I wish to give my family the best Christmas gift ever – a pregnancy announcement from DH and I.

23 Bee { 11.11.10 at 11:35 am }

I wish for the “perfect” little baby girl to be placed in our home before Christmas.

24 flmgodog { 11.11.10 at 11:50 am }

I hope “this” works.

25 Melissa G. { 11.11.10 at 11:54 am }

Hooray for wishes!

I wish that I could wish for World Peace, but dang it I want a kid next year.

I wish that my first IVF cycle will be successful next year.

Hugs to all. (thanks Mel, this put a smile on my face)

26 Foxy { 11.11.10 at 12:10 pm }

So many wonderful wishes here!

I wish that the man who owns the house behind ours will sell it to my mom. We would take down the fence and I could have tea with her everyday. And then when we have our Someday family (to be confirmed with our beta on Friday!!!!) she will be right here to help. Oh how I want this wish to come true 🙂

27 Guera! { 11.11.10 at 12:21 pm }

I wish for the birthmother who chose us to be at peace with her decision always.

28 April { 11.11.10 at 12:24 pm }

I wish that this will be the last year we celebrate the holidays without a child of our own.

29 Yolk { 11.11.10 at 12:26 pm }

I wish for the only Christmas present that would make me happy.

30 wifey { 11.11.10 at 12:29 pm }

I wish that I will be able to find something to be truly thankful for on Thanksgiving, and that this will be our last Christmas without a sweet nugget of a baby to spoil.

31 Lisa { 11.11.10 at 12:48 pm }

Normally, I would wish that my pregnancy goes smooth and we give birth to a healthy baby in May, but today, I think i’m going to wish that Mo and Will over at http://lifeandloveinthepetridish.blogspot.com/ have a family of their own someday really soon. They’ve been through hell and, well, its just time for them to have a win.

32 Tara { 11.11.10 at 1:05 pm }

I wish that everyone’s wishes will come true…but for myself: I wish my pregnancy will result in a healthy baby in March.

33 ABF { 11.11.10 at 1:07 pm }

I wish this cycle is the one!

34 Michelle { 11.11.10 at 1:29 pm }

I wish that we will have the funds available very soon to start our adoption process.

35 Michelle { 11.11.10 at 1:31 pm }

Can’t find your blog ABF, so I’m hoping that this is the one for you too!!! Envision it, think it, will it. Here’s a truckload of HOPE!!!

36 Lacie { 11.11.10 at 1:43 pm }

I wish that that this cycle we are about to go into works. I wish that I am able to welcome my healthy adopted snow baby (babies) into my arms with the success of this cycle.

37 TexasRed { 11.11.10 at 1:46 pm }

I wish these twins will arrive healthy and as close to term as possible. Any left over wishing will be for a better job to finish paying off the IVF bills.

38 HereWeGoAJen { 11.11.10 at 1:52 pm }

I wish for my friend’s baby to finally become a reality.

39 Justine { 11.11.10 at 2:04 pm }

I wish for a healthy full term baby from this pregnancy, and clarity about my future. (Oops, that’s two wishes.)

40 Megan { 11.11.10 at 2:14 pm }

I wish for my children to continue to grow and thrive, and for me to never take them for granted.

41 Jay { 11.11.10 at 2:31 pm }

I’m 7 weeks pregnant. I’m wishing for a full term, healthy baby in 7+ months.

42 JJ { 11.11.10 at 3:27 pm }

I wish that I will find a job that allows me to stop stressing.

43 Kir { 11.11.10 at 4:06 pm }

I wish that our economy would turn around and John and I could stop worrying about money.

44 Gracie in Brooklyn { 11.11.10 at 4:16 pm }

My wish is that this cycle will work!

45 Kristin (Msfitzita) { 11.11.10 at 4:16 pm }

I wish for my dad to be here for at least one more Christmas. Pretty please?

46 Denver Laura { 11.11.10 at 4:23 pm }

I wish I could finally be truely happy for someone when they announce their pregnancy.

47 Lori Lavender Luz { 11.11.10 at 4:26 pm }

I wish to have published a book that will help people open their hearts in adoption.

48 Eve { 11.11.10 at 5:33 pm }

Two wishes…can’t help it. I wish that all the mommas-in-waiting are able to realize their dream this year. And I wish that our hearts will continue to heal as the holidays bring with them the anniversary of my son’s passing.

49 Marianne { 11.11.10 at 5:36 pm }

I wish that by next 11/11/11 I am pregnant.

50 Desiree { 11.11.10 at 5:42 pm }

I wish that, after our two losses, this third time is a charm and I’ll get to meet my daughter in April.
