Unanswered prayers...hopefully

This was my daughter's prayer at breakfast this morning:

Next time my mommy has a baby in her belly, please let it be a girl and two boys, Alexa, Brady, & Austin. And please let them be in there now.

I know full well that God answers prayers, but in this case, I'm hoping for an unanswered prayer.

We'll be anxiously awaiting the announcement of your triplets.

When Callie was three, out of the blue one day she said to me, "You have a baby in your tummy." She was very matter-of-fact. That very night I took a pregnancy test that had a positive result . . . and thus came Katie several months later. I had just started suspecting, and Kevin knew nothing of my suspicions, until that night when I said, "So our daughter is a prophet . . . " I'm just sayin'.

Haha! I'm afraid it's true. Kevin and I hardly spoke to each other for a few days because we were in such shock. Of course, what would we do now without our Katie?!

You'd better get to doing a little counter-prayer.

Ha, ha you know about a month before Hudson's first birthday I jokingly said "if God would promise me a little girl than I'd have another one tomorrow." I found out on Hudson's first birhtday I was pregnant...thank goodness it wasn't triplets. I guess I don't have to worry about waiting for any announcement....I'll probably hear the screams from the backyard!! Just think...that's an 11 kiddos between 2 houses on one small cul de sac. I'm staying on my side of the fence!!
