So, we are all agreed then? We will all have another baby? Who's going first? I say oldest to youngest!

And yes, tworivers, the pregnancy part (swollen ankles, etc.) isn't all that much fun, but we're talking about *getting pregnant* here, not becoming *more pregnant*, if you see what I mean. Do you see what I mean? *wicked grin*

… more fun, until you are too big to maneuver, and your ankles swell, and you have to pee every 5 minutes … of course, getting people to bring me meals would be kind of fun. And the little outfits are very cute, and the little people are very cute, and they’re even mostly cute when they’re 10 … Who needs sleep, anyway? Very overrated!!

Oh my word yes trying is sooo much more fun than not trying. Hmmm maybe I can handle a third…

No, it is neither announcement nor prophecy. But I admit that the attention one gets when pregnant, when about to deliver, when newly delivered, has its appeal.... But that's no reason to have another baby.

My mother always says that one baby takes all your time, anyway, so why not have more? Why not, indeed?

And - dare I say this? - getting pregnant is so much more fun than trying not to....

One wonders if that last line is an announcement or a prophecy? Reading the above makes even ME, the one who has definitely decided two is enough, want to have another child. But my mind also flashes to barely having enough time to spend with the two I have, not to mention the lack of money and Jack is just two and I feel like I may never climb out of the clutter that is my house, never mind the clutter that is my life. So you go ahead mother of three, master’s degree student, author, teacher, and servant to all. Really what would be the difference if you added one more.
