So I go to the mail today to get the mail. Whatever do I find in there? An American Girl catalog. Do I look like a mom who needs an American Girl catalog?
Uh, nope. I have no girls, will have no girls, so why do I get this catalog? However, it does make me wonder, do moms of girls wonder what it would be like to have a boy? Or want a boy? Honestly, I have always said I wanted boys. I guess I got my wish. But, when you are told you are having a girl (that lasted less than 24 hours mind you) and in that time frame already have a name (since you are told that baby is coming TODAY) I think it is natural to wonder. What if? Or what would it be like. I would not trade Gunner for any girl in the world, unless of course he really was a she, little Jillian Elyse. That was what we planned on naming him (her) when my water broke on May 6th.
