Those of you that I speak with daily know that I have gone back and forth between calling Baby S a boy...and then... days later...have switched it to a girl.
I am just not sure what this baby is. That is the absolute truth.
Am I making it gender confused by calling it a girl or boy from one week and then switching it the next. I am assuming not.
The truth is, to me there are only a few gender positives to having a boy and gender positives to having a girl.
Here they are:
Girl Positives
I love Barbies and dolls and I think I would still be good at playing with them.
I think girl clothes are more fun to buy. I love frilly panties and mary janes.
Boy Positives
I will make my father in law happy by giving him a boy to pass on the Salter name.
I think boys are easier to raise....I dont know though....just going by what my friends say.
Everything else that I look forward to doing with my child or hope to see my child take part in, really doesnt matter if they are a boy or girl:
Going fishing with grandpa
Doing crafts
Going to the races with Daddy
Going to their high school football game ( they can be a player or a cheerleader...I'll still go)
Getting their first bb gun and teaching them how to shoot it
Becoming a firefighter...Shelly Latsha....you are one heck of a role model for litle girls.
I think Jim will do just as well with a Baby Audrey as he will with a Baby Grayson.
I think he would be a great dad to a little girl, just the same as he will be a great dad to a little boy, maybe even better. I hope that he will still want to take her to the firehouse and the races.
In the end, I can see myself as a good mom to either gender.
Maybe when I have one I will feel like I want to have another of the opposite sex just to experience the challenge of both. ( I truly doubt this....though you all think i will change my mind...I did love being an only child).
