Then, she would sneak over the other side and speak to him. You could visably see him turn over to the sound of her voice.

In fact, after the twins were born, we got a call from the babysitter, very upset. She wanted us to talk to our daughter about her "inappropriate language." The crime: when another kid at the daycare kept saying his mommy was gonna have a baby "pop out of her tummy too," DD1 nonchalantly corrected him..."no she's not, the baby's in her uterus." ;) <BR/><BR/>She also attended "big sister school" as she called it...simply a class the hospital offered for older sibs.<BR/><BR/>DD1 had "begged" for a younger sib, then shortly after the Rugrats movie came out, started asking for/saying we would have twins (about 2 months before we knew for sure). Once we knew, we settled on M for DS, and then DD1 said she liked J for DD2...it stuck, so she takes a lot of pride in having helped named her little sis.Karla MGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09840050000753549956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8646018.post-28650999033012058882007-06-09T18:00:00.000-05:002007-06-09T18:00:00.000-05:00I almost always need to write about other things f...I almost always need to write about other things first on sermon day.

I found out about it from him before his mother announced it, during the prayer time we have with the children each week. He even decided on her first name. They were leaning toward a "Texas city" name for her, as they'd done with their son (firstborn), but he shook his head and said, "No, Mom! Her name is _________." The mom and dad decided they really like that name. It's alliterative, and they even have a cute family joke about it. They seem to have approached the pregnancy very well with him. We're all full of joy at her pending arrival. I can hardly wait for the adult choir to sing "our" baptism anthem (lyrics by moi) for her when the time comes.<BR/><BR/>I love your suggestions. They make a lot of sense and show a lot of love and respect for the expected child's sibling(s).Psalmisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12844681463669483309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8646018.post-73325492885301938412007-06-09T15:58:00.000-05:002007-06-09T15:58:00.000-05:00How timely for me.
