"We were talking about how my daughter is going to be well dressed in girly clothes with all your Goodwill shopping." (My mother finds beautiful dresses for my 8-year-old cousin to save her parents money who don't have good thrift stores.)
My husband interjected, "No. We're not having any girls. No girls."
"Yes you will!" His mom responded.
"No! Because if we have girls," there was a small pause, "I'll have to give them away!"
This is very sweet. :) Of course, if God gives you and Ben girls, He will also give Ben the grace to give them away. And too, our children are not ours, God gives blesses us with them to raise them, cherish them, and send them out (like arrows from a bow!) equipped for His purposes.
