I don't have a plan

Yep, you heard me. I don't have any idea how or if our family is going to grow. I'm still waiting for my husband to tell me he lost his mind. I asked each of the children what they thought would be the best fit for our family. Miri said a teen girl would not work. Of course her princess status would be unearthed. So she said she wants a 11 year old brother. Specific request huh? A.J. wants a sister pretty close to her age. She says color doesn't matter either. I love that kid. For the record she saw a little girl on the dhs website she likes. I have been watching that little girl for years... even before we found Oskar. So then I asked the Eesti prince. He wants a baby. It is not debatable. He told me babies sleep in little beds and tried to describe the things than spins and plays music (a mobile). He wants a baby sister and for her to share his room. Want to hear something neat? O is ROUGH and tumble, but all that ends when he sees a baby. He becomes very gentle and slow. He would be an amazing big brother. For the record, hubs has said girls are easier. however, he thinks a teen girl would be insane. What do I think would be nice? Who the heck knows. Seems like some compromising is in order huh?

  2. Girls are EASIER?????!!!!! I haven't noticed that! But, TEEN girls have to be the WORST! Of course I have one at the moment - and two teen boys; even the "difficult" boy is so darned straightforward in comparison!

  3. I think what hubs means is that attaching for him is easier to a girl. Hubs was not raised with very much affection, so loving on a little boy has been something he has to....learn. Instead of hugging or kissing Oskar, he puts him in his lap for playing video games.
