Kyson is growing too fast!! And will I always want to keep having babies to fill that void? Will I ever feel like our family is complete?

When you can sit and have a conversation with your child and know that what you went through when they were young is paying off. Kamille is only 7 but I see good traits in her that I would like to think I instilled. Your a good mom, Sue, baby or older kids, pat yourself on the back.Brian and Rebecca Natehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10113206062864575949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7986078710205538946.post-21955970141186821032009-11-19T08:42:45.422-07:002009-11-19T08:42:45.422-07:00Nursing is wonderful when it works.

I think she was, in a way, asking permission to stop stressing about not having more kids. I would not have to change another runny, dirty diaper (at least for my own kids - just wait til the "grandma" time of your life shows up!). Times and seasons.... It is also a great feeling when one of your kids comes up to you spontaneously and asks for a hug that lingers. You will always be their mother and their first source of love and affection. Each day is a new adventure with your kids, whatever their age, so relax and savor every day.Lois Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09304053518350340234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7986078710205538946.post-73254548704567388252009-11-19T00:09:49.234-07:002009-11-19T00:09:49.234-07:00You write 50 times better than I do.

...You write 50 times better than I do. I hate you.<br /><br />I'll get over that some day. Maybe.<br /><br />Man, I totally here you. Here I am, growing kid #5, and I'm like, "How can this be the last one?" How can this part of my life be over? No more babies, ever?! I don't want to be this old! But again, you have to consider your existing children, and what you can handle and still be a good mom to the ones you have. I guess I keep waiting for a big official announcement from the universe telling me that yes, this is truly the last one. There are no more spirits waiting to come to you. I guess that's what gets me, despite still being in the stage where I'm cleaning squished banana out of the carpet, yet driving teenagers to all their activities. I don't want to regret the child I didn't have who really wanted to be with us. But Zen and I have limited resources, but then again, Heavenly Father can make a way. Hhmmm, maybe when this one is born, I'll finally know.Becky in Wyohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06684694251553801410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7986078710205538946.post-83891546171286635312009-11-18T19:29:27.096-07:002009-11-18T19:29:27.096-07:00Such an emotional and beautiful post.

I swear we just came over to your mom's house to visit you when you had him. As for me, I'm in trouble already. My baby is only five days old and I'm already starting to have panic attacks that he's growing too fast and I'm trying to soak in every second of this wonderful newborn stage where I get to nurse and snuggle him all day. I' m still recovering from labor and I'm already ready to have ten more kids. So I'm not much help other than to say treasure every second, even the hard ones because time goes by too fast and be thankful that we get to be so lucky to be able to stay home and create these beautiful memories with our kids! See you soon, I'm so excited to have you take his pictures!Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18315422475766369418noreply@blogger.com
