Apple of my eye
this is him. this is my baby boy. well...he's not a baby any more, but he'll always be my sweet baby boy. i'll be real open here and say that jon and i have recently come to the discussion of having more children. i mean really talking about it. poring over the finer details. remembering the sacrifices. reveling in victory yet, in a way, declining to engage in battle a second time. part of me is more than justified in this decision taking into consideraton my (our) circumstances, and yet there is a part that wonders if we are giving up too soon. i don't know what i mean by giving up....ok....i guess i do know. would i be giving up on jon and i getting the chance to be "typical" parents?
i can't explain quite the conundrum that we are in. maybe opening the topic up for discussion will bring a point of view not yet discussed, or at least you can tell us we're stupid and shouldn't worry so much because we already have a beautiful, delicious little boy that is more than worth whatever pitiful sacrifices we feel sorry for ourselves for making.
