This is NOT an Announcement

Tonight at dinnertime, R said "I think we should have a baby girl." T agreed, "Yeah, I think that's a good idea."

Oh, I said. I'm not sure about that. Daddy and I like the family that we have now and we think that God is happy with our family as it is now too. But, if God wants us to have a baby girl, we will have one.

R said, "Well, we don't have to have it right away. Maybe in January or something...some time this winter would be good."

I explained to him that it takes about 9 months for a baby to grow in a mommy's tummy. So, the earliest we'd be able to have one is around his birthday, if that's what God wanted.

He thought that's okay...as long as it's not really on his birthday. T agreed.


DISCLAIMER:
As I say in the title, THIS IS NOT AN ANNOUNCEMENT OF ANY KIND. It's simply a re-creation of a dinnertime discussion.

What a great story . . . sometime this winter would be a miracle! I'm glad you gave it the title you did because my heart start thumping pretty fast at the thought of another grandkid . . . especially a baby girl!

Pretty cute! Bet he has a friend with a little sister. He would sure be an ideal big brother.

I love the way kids think - "maybe not right now...sometime in January would be good."
Cute stories!
