That One

At least once each day I think about whether or not we will have more kids...so the other day I decided to ask Sophie her opinion.

Me: "Sophie, would you like to have more brothers or sisters?"

Sophie's very matter of fact response: "No, I just want that one." (as she points to Claire like she's picking out a piece of meat at the deli counter)

there is something to be said for honesty.

T tells me that he wants to send L back and get a brother.

hmmm. This is something that Ben and I ponder literally every single day as well. I hadn't thought to ask the other little ones what their opinions might be. I'll have to give it a shot. Hopefully they're a bit more decisive than we are. ;)

Yes Melissa and hopefully they'll be a little more respectful of their siblings and actually refer to them by name!

Paulina - that is the cutest thing I have ever heard. Kevin and I go back and forth too. Two seems so nice and tidy (and easier)- but more is so much fun. Plus I feel old. Yeah - I go back and forth. I feel like I need to decide SOON though! Lucie actually told me out of the blue yesterday that she wanted another brother. I asked her if dad told her to say that. She said yes. When I asked him, he said he didn't. I don't trust either of them!!
