Well, here we are...almost Christmas! I know I've said this a thousand times, but I have to say it once more!...I have never in my life been this excited about Christmas! (though my baby girl makes EVERY day Christmas!) But I am also thinking about all of you that are unable to feel joy this holiday season. I hope you're ok and managing gracefully through what can be the hardest time of the year. Though I have my Christmas dream this year, it took 10 years to get to my dream. But that all seems like a distant memory. And I know it will seem that way to you too, once your baby comes to you. Just know it...believe it...feel it. Motherhood will unfold, however it is meant to, in your life.

This is our 4th show of The Reproductive Challenged Woman. My guest on this show is sharing the story of her struggle into motherhood, but her story is one that's perfect for Christmas time, as it is quite miraculous! Her name is Shannon Cherry, the founder of Be Heard Solutions and Cherry Communications (not to mention the 'nearly famous' blog, Mommy-Inc.com). A busy lady, a determined lady, yet one that was able to pull in the reins and get her life back in the midst of her fertility issues, (something that is no easy task.)

Shannon understands why I'm going so nutty this Christmas...having a pink Christmas, throwing a party for more people than my house will accommodate, making pink chocolate standing Christmas trees for over 50 people, when I've never made chocolate before, blah blah blah.... (I plead extreme happiness and insurmountable joy when defending my Christmas insanity.) Shannon understands... because she is also having the Christmas of her life! (you have to listen to the show to find out why!)

This is the FIRST Christmas in her marriage of 7 years, that she and her husband have put up a tree! Hmmm....could it be that there's a Christmas angel (or 2) in their presence? Please take a listen to the uplifting and inspiring story, and hear about Shannon's miraculous gift.

Remember...miracles DO happen, there is ALWAYS hope (no matter what your doctors might say), and there are many options. When one door closes, another will open...because you are determined, and nothing less than becoming a mommy is acceptable to you.

I also want to make note that my blog is now full-time running! Yippee!! So please check it out at www.rcwshow.com/blog.  I would love love love to hear from you! If I can be of any help and encouragement, let me know. And if you have a story you might like to share, let me know that too! But until then, have a fabulous holiday season! Happy Hanukkah and Merry Christmas!

I wish you all sweet peace, abundant joy and unexpected miracles for your New Year. And I hope you become a regular listener of The Reproductive Challenged Woman. Love to you all!
