It is hard to believe that a year has gone by.... A year since I married
Bosco and became Mrs. Boscorelli... and I love it.. Bosco has made me happier
than I could have ever imagined.. shortly after we married.. we decided to
use the rest of the insurance money and put a down payment on a house on
the island.. My life is complete, I have my kids who love their step-dad...
and I have a wonderful husband who puts me on a pedestal... well I have him
on one as well... Swersky still allowed us to ride in 55-David... despite the
rules that forbade married couples from partnering up.. I guess it was
because we were partners for so long he decided to bend the rules a little...
I thought that I would go nuts in the first year.. spending day and night
with Boz but I found I didn't mind much.. we always had something to talk
about.. weather it be additions to the house or what we were going to make
for dinner when we got home...
I lay in bed, I feel Boscos arms around me... we often sleep like this.. it is a peaceful feeling for both of us.. I look at the clock, it is almost 11:00am we got to bed late last night.. we were talking about what to do to the living room.. I wanted to paint while Bosco wanted to wallpaper.. it was a battle of the wits.. I won in the end by reminding him on how much easier it was to paint... that and we had experience in that department from painting my bedroom in the old apartment.. well that settled the argument... no sooner had I finished that thought when I felt suddenly ill... I got up out of bed and ran to the ensuite where I prayed to the porcelain gods... it must have been that quiche I had last night... I don't think that it was agreeing with me at all... I sit on the floor until I no longer feel ill..
"Honey are you feeling allright?"
Bosco's voice is full of concern... "Yeah I think what I ate last night isn't agreeing with me..."
I get up off the bathroom floor... oddly I feel a little better... I reach over and flush the toilet and grab a drink of water from the bathroom sink, and head back to bed.. Bosco is sitting up in bed watching me walk towards him.. I sit down on the edge of the bed and I feel him rub my shoulders.. God I love it when he does that... I love it when he just knows when they are sore.. I close my eyes and relish in the moment..
"you feeling better now?"
"Yea Boz, thanks..."
"That is funny.. we both had the same thing last night and I feel fine..."
I lay back on the pillow and Bosco lies behind me and wraps his arms around my waist...I at the calendar on the nightstand and I started thinking... my last period was over a month ago... I feel ice run though my veins... no... I can't be! But then again Bosco and I haven't been using a lot of birth control either so there is a possibility... there is only one way to find out... I get up out of bed and start getting dressed...
"where are you going Fay?"
"I feel like walking to the drugstore... the fresh air will do me good... and I have to get something for my stomach... if I am going to make it though work tonight..."
Bosco mumbles something into his pillow and I walk out the door... I am walking down the street thinking if I really am Pregnant... well I will have to wait and see what the test says.. but I have a feeling that it is going to be positive.. I am late for my period.. I was sick this morning... I have been feeling over tired lately and my breasts have become larger and they hurt like hell....
I reach the Pharmacy and I immediately look though the herbal medicines for some powdered Ginger... it is the only thing that I can take for the sickness if I am pregnant.. at least the only thing that I can take that wont harm the baby and will let me get though a day without having to holler on the white telephone every 10min... I also head down the family planning isle and grab a pregnancy test.. I make sure to get the one that has two tests in it.. you can't be too sure about it... and I wanted to be defiantly sure before I tell Bosco that I am bearing his child.. I reach the counter and pay for it all the pharmacist smiles at me when she rings in the tests...
"Two huh?"
"Yup..I want to be sure before I tell my husband..."
"Good idea.. that will be $21.73 please"
I hand her the money and she wishes me good luck as I leave the store...I am walking back to the house when I feel nauseous again.. I sit down on a bench and wait for it to subside as I take a pinch of powdered ginger and place it under my tongue.. after a few minutes I feel the nausea subside and I continue on my way home.. I walk though the door and straight to the bathroom... I have to find out... NOW! I take the test out of the box and read the instructions.. it says that I should have an answer in 2 minutes... so I do the test and watch it like a hawk... one minute passes... nothing... I am starting to think that this might all be in my head.. that I am not really pregnant when the test starts to change... one blue line..... oh god... TWO LINES!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!
"Holy Mary, Mother of God!... what the hell am I going to tell Bosco?"
I take the second test just to make sure and two blue lines appear on that one too... Oh My God I am pregnant... I am pregnant with Bosco's child.. our child.. I feel overwhelmed for a moment as the realization that after 13 years I am pregnant again... I thought I was done having kids.. I am not too old to have them.. I am only 36... I can still have children... and now I am having his baby... oh my god.. I can't wait to see the way he is going to react... I am still in shock.. I am happier than I can be right now... now that I know that I am going to have his baby...a baby that I couldn't have wanted more in my life right now.. we have a house and two stable incomes... we can afford to have this child and still life the life that we are living... there isn't anything that this child is going to want for... I can't wait to tell Boz... I place my hands over my stomach... I guess I had better break the good news to him... I have no idea how he is going to react when I tell him that I am having our child...
Charlie and Em have left for school and we have the house to ourselves for about 3 hours until we have to be in work.. plenty of time... I climb the stairs to the bedroom and peek in though the open door.. he had fallen back to sleep and was now spread eagled on the bed.. his one arm is over my pillow and he has his face buried into it... My heart is pounding in my ears as I put the tests in my pocket and I walk into the room...
I sit on the edge of the bed and lean over my sleeping husband... I kiss him softly on the corner of his mouth.. he moans softly and turns his head to return the kiss...
"Now that is a way to be woken up!"
"Bosco... I have something to tell you....."
I lay in bed, I feel Boscos arms around me... we often sleep like this.. it is a peaceful feeling for both of us..
