To add or not to add

Looking at my belly pictures posted reminds me of a decision to be made. We are praying about whether to add another child to our already busy life and comfortable family dynamic. There's so many reasons why I say yes:

  1. Gianna will have a sister
  2. I will have two girls to help me shop:~o
  3. Less pressure for Gianna being the only girl
  4. More support for me in my "old age"
  5. (I secretly like the chaos)

Reasons I want to say no

  1. I'm a freak when I'm pregnant, constant yelling, so many aches
  2. Will we all fit "comfortably" in this house?
  3. how will we handle all the teenagers, and the food bill?
  4. I haven't lost all of my weight from last pregnancy
  5. will it really benefit Gianna not to be the only girl?

So there. A lot to be considered I guess. Deep in my heart though I really feel there's room for one more. Only if God promises it'll be a girl and my preference is for her to have reddish hair like Micah (so he won't question if he was adopted lol). I believe God will grant my desires if they are his, he has been so true to me, he has worked miracles in my life.
