Tomorrow marks a big milestone, no that's just not the word for it. Tomorrow is a big day! no that's not it either. Both statements are right but it just doesn't do justice to what I want to convey.
Tomorrow we find out wether we are having a boy or girl, a son or daughter.
I wait with great anticipation, joy overflowing and butterflies fluttering.
We don't just find out if we are having a son or daughter tomorrow. We find out if we will be buying more pink or more blue. We find out if we will be raising a gentleman or a lady. We find out if earrings are at infancy for her or later in life when he can make that decision. We find out what family members name the child will carry. We find out if there will be ponytail holders or sweaty socks to pick up. We find out if it's boyfriends or girlfriends that we will have to ward off. Tomorrow, we find out so many things not just whether it's a boy or a girl.
Tomorrow we find out if we will carry home, McKinley David or Naomi Ruth on December
4th, give or take a few.
Most people think we are having a boy which we would be delighted with, but my feeling is a girl. Maybe it's because I remember Ruth sitting in her chair with a devilish little laugh saying, "I see red headed little granddaughters." Or maybe it's because I tend to go against the crowd. Either way tomorrow we find out and my heart almost can't take the wait. A quote I found today and posted to the side but who really pays attention to peoples sidebars?

I can't imagine your excitement! love your comments about what the future holds for a girl or a boy!
Lacy hopes it's a girl 'cause you love taking care of girls. Katelynn said she wants you to have a Jenna. I guess that means a girl, too!
I'm with them. So that makes it unanimous!!
We can't wait to get THIS phone call!!!!
