In my heart, there exists a Baby Dunbar #3. I love that baby so much. I think it would be amazing to watch that baby with two older brothers. I’d love to have the crazy of three kids. I’d love to have a big family for holiday and birthday celebrations. I can’t imagine how full my heart would feel watching our three kids grow up together.
It’s not completely out of the question, BUT I’m not sure we can handle a third baby either. There are so many logistics that would make it harder to be a family of five. Rationally, I think we are better to stick with being a family of four. Rationally. But my heart tugs at me.
Baby #3 will always be in my heart, whether he or she makes it to meet us or not.
In the meantime, I’m enjoying the adjustment to a life of not being pregnant, cutting back on nursing, spending more time at work, and getting into a groove. It’s a nice feeling! This is the calmest our lives have been in a couple of years. It almost feels…easy. But, that’s just because today Cash is at school and the bathroom remodel project is paused for today. Gimme a couple of days and I’ll be calling it unmanagaeable again!
Joyful Striving
