Hi! I came across your blog when reading my friend Kelsi's blog. You had made a comment. :) I hope it's ok I'm following you now. I am also Catholic and we're pregnant with our 4th (7th pregnancy). We also practice NFP (although I guess we don't really practice it a whole lot since we want a houseful of kids...). I got a kick out of this post because it's so true!!!!!! <3 Sara
Thanks Sara Ann - we only have 3 as you can see, but I feel a void for the one we should have between Peanut and Pi, but that was not God's plan. He knows better than we do. I always thought I would have 4 kids. Now I have so many more with the coaching and teaching I get to do. Thanks for joining me here.
