I've told J before that we're just too lucky. The few times we've had bad luck (our SUV being totaled, our washing machine flooding our house (twice), a flat tire and five hours on Alligator Alley), I've chalked it up to Karma balancing out our otherwise blessed lives. My parents love him, I get along famously with his family. We're healthy, happy, have a nice home and plenty of food to eat. We have the best dog in the world (don't bother arguing with me, you won't win), amazing friends and two jobs that we enjoy.
We have an amazing girl that I'm proud to call my stepdaughter, even if we don't get to spend much time with her due to distance. Honestly, we just don't have much to complain about.
Is our infertility the ultimate balancing act dealt us by Karma? Perhaps this is our one big challenge that we will face as a couple. If so, it's a doozy. But I still have to step back and say, all things being equal, we're two lucky folks.
Might have to put that on a sticky note (or three) and post it where I'll see it every day.

I totally believe in karma and I think you put way too much goodness into the world and are such a blessing to so many, you will have your blessings in return.
DH always says when things like this aren't easy, it makes it a true experience...it has truly deepened us as individuals and as a couple. It's a horrible thing to go through, but we have to believe in and hope for our happy endings. Thinking of you.
There's never been enough bad luck in your life to balance out how amazing you are, nor how blessed your life is.
Karma just isn't that definative. If it were, Ghandi wouldn't have been famous, or changed the world, or spawned others like him.
I hope you found the sticky notes. :-)
I love you.
