My good friend is recently pregnant and I have been getting all kinds of updates on her feeling the baby kick, preparing for the arrival of their little one, and everything that makes being pregnant so exciting. I have also been seeing cute little babies everywhere, from the mall to a co-workers new baby. I was starting to get that itch, you know, the itch that says this is the time to give Grace a new brother or sister. I told Pat last night about my new thoughts and received a weird glance but did not hear a definite no.
We woke up last night after an hour of sleep to a crying Grace. She was extremely congested, running a fever, and was very miserable. We spent most of the night trying to help her sleep, which then led to Pat and I receiving about the amount of sleep we used to receive when she was an infant. We were both in a haze today, naps were hard to come by since Grace was clingy, and I am exhausted and ready for bed and it is only 8pm.
Hmmm, sounds a little like how I felt when I had an infant. I am so not ready to go back to those days, I am enjoying my sleep and my alone time with Grace! I know I want a brother or sister for Grace someday, but after last night, I am back to wanting to wait. Sometimes I really think God is listening and responds in very interesting ways!
