This is the classic line that Sam turns to me and asks typically when both of the boys are going crazy. And typically, in those moments, I really don't have a good answer for him. But, regardless, we are expecting another boy arriving in Jan/Feb. Another boy. I look at Kaj and Josh sometimes in complete joy as they play or laugh together, and then other times wide eyed and really really scared. When I found out it took a minute to swallow, Sam apologized first. But, then when I asked him what he thought of the news he said: "I think that they are going to be the best of friends, and they are going to love their mom more than you know." And that's verbatim. I started to cry at the sweetness of his words, and hoped that, that was true. I know Sam meant it. My mom, who was with me, began to say funny things like "Well, you will aways have a moving crew," "You will never have to move another box again," "You will always have the lightest pack if you go backpacking." All probably true. Ha! Really, 3 boys will be crazy and fun. I like being a mom to boys. I love their differences, and their funniness, and love every time they want to hold my hand. I can't picture this new little one, I can only imagine he will be a cross between Kaj and Josh? Seemingly neglecting most of my genes altogether. Sam asked me a couple times now, who do you think he will be like? More like Josh or more like Kaj? And, I feel like he will be like neither. Just a whole other ball game. I will get another peak at him in a couple days, it is always fun to get a glimpse of your baby. Maybe after that I will have more insight to what this kid will be like, but I am not putting any money on it.
