E.M.
If you're "going for the boy..." don't have another child. I have 3 boys and people always ask me (can you believe the nerve of some people?!), "Are you going to go for the girl?" I don't understand this thinking. Families are all different combinations of people. To think that my family is somehow incomplete because I have only one gender is narrow-minded and ignorant. I love my boys, couldn't imagine life without them, or with a girl substituted for one of them. My husband and I are blessed with this noisy, active family. Influencing my point of view is the fact that I had a miscarriage between my 2 youngest boys. When people ask that STUPID question, I simply say, "No way - 3 boys is perfect for us" and in my head I think, maybe I already did and she's up there waiting for us...
