Some thoughts on number 4...

4 is Tom's favorite number so it really is fitting that we are now expecting "C" number 4... I am still in shock, still trying to wrap my brain around the whole thing. But I am HAPPY, elated in fact. We never thought we could have kids, and that our journey in life included adopting those 2 crazy boys of ours. That was the plan, we were meant to do that and when life was where I "THOUGHT" it should be someone else had other plans. Silly me. And then we were blessed with our little girl. Ah, life felt complete and full. Well guess what happens when you get too comfortable, and your kids are potty trained and you finally let go of all the baby stuff, because you were secretly hoping for another one? Yup, you get your wish, a little late. Baby "C" will be loved, will be lucky enough to have 2 older brothers and an older sister, will have 2 parents who adore him or her already, have begun planning their arrival and look forward to the day when we get to hold them. Although I feel unprepared at this point I know that when the time comes I will take this new challenge and give it all that I have, do the best that I can and hopefully remember to enjoy what I have been given. I think I can do that.
