Pangs of Want
I laid in bed next to the sweetest little almost 8 week old girl for three hours last night while her parents took her brother to the ER. I couldn't stop myself from touching her, and my arms ached to cuddle her close (I tried, mind you, but she started rooting, and that would have been a very bad thing for her to wake up wanting!). I had forgotten what it looked like to have a baby in my bed! I looked at Cam and him leaning over to kiss her sweet little head, and I just wanted. I wanted another one. Another sweet baby to hold and snuggle and nurse. Ohhhh, it was a little taste of heaven. I think I fell in love last night and sweet baby Brooklyn now has a piece of my heart!

You have NO idea how often this feeling/urge/want hits me. The thing is - - I am comfortable where we are. We agreed on two and that's fine. But there are moments, especially when I look at their baby/toddler pictures, when I think - - maybe one more.
Then, I smack myself silly because I'm disgustingly near 40. THAT is insanity for me.
I guess I'll just have to wait many years for a grandbaby. *sigh*
You are too kind. We are going to miss y'all when we both move (too soon:(. I believe Brooklynn enjoyed it just as much as you did! You were a HUGE blessing to our family. THANKS!!
