How many??....5

"How many children do you have?" This can be a tricky question for a lot of people including me. Do people really want an answer or is it a question like the weather conversations we have with people. Unfortunately this question can really hurt someone with out us knowing it. I try to not ever ask it as I hate it when it is asked to me. Especially since I have a 19 and a 3 year old, and three angels in heaven, when people find out I lost babies they assume it was in those years between the kids. And then when and if they find out it was after my 3 year old's birth they'll say "But how can that be?" Kind of like when we announced out pregnancy with our 3 year old people asked us "Well how did that happen?" I am sure I have said flippant remarks that have hurt people for that I am sorry.

HMMMMMMMMMMM

So I went to my nephews graduation tonight which was a HUGE accomplishment for him! YEA SCOTTIE!! Anyway the speaker told them to follow their dreams use their God given gifts........I'm good with naughty kids-meaning teens-- and babies, cooking, and supporting other baby loss moms, various other things. IF I was younger I'd become a social worker. So we are called to go where God needs us. Hope I am listening. Trying to decide what to do when Elijah goes back to school............not nursing. SIGH.
