Disappointment

was never something I experienced when Emmalyn came out being a girl. Obviously God wanted to give me the gift of three girls and I couldnt be happier. I love watching them and their friendships grow. I ran into a girl last night that was pregnant with her third while grocery shopping. Jesse was ahead of me with his cart that carried Ariel & Clarity and I was following behind with my cart that had Emmalyn. The girl peeked in and was like, "Is that another girl?" and I smiled really big and said, "sure is". She then tells me she's so glad she's not alone, that she's expecting her third girl in two months. She told me how much she had wanted a boy and how disappointed she was. She didnt want anymore pink.. she had dealt with that enough and she wanted blue. I just kept telling her how awesome I thought having three girls was. I guess a part of me wondered what it would be like having a boy but I honestly didnt care either way. I have never experienced disappointment with what my kids gender was so I guess I was kind of shocked to see someone so upset over it. I'm sure her feelings will change once her daughter gets here. That girl is going to have her hands full though as there is only 18 months between her first and second and then there will be 17 months between her second and third. YIKES!
