Just another sunday at the store... it is such a great place to work. I enjoy the company of all the folks I work with. It is like a little 'family' in itself and it is pretty great. I was a bit tired today however because I stayed up to late last night playing a drinking game... don't know what I was thinking but it is what it is... and let me just say for the record... I can still win!! :) But it wasn't a problem... I wasn't the only one who had some fun last night!
We have been having "talks" about another baby or small kid... I'm not getting any younger and if we wanted to try fertility again now is the time to do it... a private adoption is out of the question unless I go back to work full time (which is NOT about to happen)... and foster/adoption is a possibility but frightening. Financially it is not a good time but is it ever? Many people provide to many more with a lot less.... Does it really matter if he is an only child... the answer hides from me. One thing is for certain... he loves the 'boys' he gets contact with regularly... Tucker was here this weekend & played with Espen. Espen woke up first thing & wanted to go wake Tucker so they could continue playing!! And Anders of course has a very special relationship with Espen.... they are inseparable.... someday they both may feel a great loss but for now they have each other... So we have the conversation... I don't want to wait until Espen is 5 to figure out what we want to do because it may take until he is 5 to finalize something! So if you are an only child and want to shed some light to me... or if you have some strong opinion either way I'd like to hear it... or if you are parents of an only child...
My last thought for today is just about friendship.... I'm thankful & greatful for the friends I have and those that keep me in their lives... friendship is the hardest thing to come by and the hardest thing to keep...
