I s...I think your children are so adorable too! :) <br />I so enjoyed reading this post and it reminded me of Sis. Beck's beautiful 'Mother's Who Know' talk and a mother's desire to bring children to the world. Each little one is such a gift and I can't think of anything our Father wants to guide us in more than in our stewardship as a mother/parents over our little ones and families. I'm sure he will do so with you! Good luck and hope you're having a Merry Christmas season!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10440164306822989470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17566824.post-48420612616924747142009-12-09T17:13:00.364-07:002009-12-09T17:13:00.364-07:00I just love ya!

In that same vein, the fact that you are afraid of balance probably means you will let your kids be kids, have the number of babies that is just right for your family, and be sensitive to the will of the Lord. What a great family you have and a great future to look forward to!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10901353224789829088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17566824.post-32380591480537436192009-12-08T09:13:36.654-07:002009-12-08T09:13:36.654-07:00I LOVED this post.

I'm scared to death, but at the same time, I feel that if it's God's will, then He will provide me the strength and ability. Lots of praying about this one!! Who knows, maybe we will be prego buddies!! :)Becca Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17922433398169440181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17566824.post-42313213693315038942009-12-08T02:04:24.011-07:002009-12-08T02:04:24.011-07:00First, I will say the expectations you've plac...First, I will say the expectations you've placed on yourself are unreal to live up to. Heavenly Father doesn't want you to be all those things at the same time. Even though all those things are wonderful qualities...are they supposed to be yours? <br /><br />A couple years after my 5th I became really ill for months and needed a walker or cane to get around. A wise friend (one of my children's teachers whose kids were all grown) told me that kids are resilient and they need the basics to be successful. So I say to you...simplify and know that you are amazing! Just the fact that you are worried about providing your children with the very best shows your love.<br /><br />About children...I understand. I used to feel that it took me FOREVER to get pregnant, but the reality is 9 months isn't long at all! <br /><br />I'll tell you what I did..."just whenever" I feel, "if it happens, I can handle it" and I never had to worry about when or how I was going to do it, etc. I knew if it happened I could handle it. <br /><br />I've also learned if we think we are over our head we generally get pushed further than thought bearable. Five was good for me. Six was great. The twins news sent me into hysterics (and not the laughing kind) I didn't know how I was going to do it. Know what, even with my current situation I would do it all over again!!!! I can't imagine not one of my children being mine.Timanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03121375352909558723noreply@blogger.com
