The Talk!
O.K. Today we were preparing food for a friend that just had a baby. I was putting icing on a cake and Leah says "yum yum". So I said "this cake is for the Hammetts." " Why are we taking a cake to the Hammetts?" she says. "Because they just had a new baby." "How did they get a new baby?" "God gave them a baby." " Why did God give them a baby?" "Because he knew they wanted one." "Why doesn't God give us a baby?" "Because he knows that Mama and Daddy don't need another baby to take care of right now." "OH!" SILENCE............ "When I get this many (holding up 4 or 5 fingers) God is going to give me a baby." "Well you have to get married first." "And I think you better just keep on taking care of the babies that you have, they are much easier to take care of." "OK" Nothing else was said until Emma gets into the car this afternoon. First thing out of Leah's mouth was "Emma, God gave the Hammetts a new baby." So sweet! I think this was good enough for now. Sometimes I do wonder what goes through there little minds, and today I got a little taste.

Sometimes God gives you a baby even if you don't THINK you need one! And then lo & behold, you can't imagine life without them. Hopefully God won't THINK you need one if you don't THINK you need one (even if others are holding out for a 3rd soyars baby)
That is so sweet! :)
