Another boy!

I am so happy for my brother and my sister-in-law.  They are having another boy!  I'll be welcoming a new nephew soon--in November, puhon.

I had wished for a girl in our family since all of us siblings, and my cousin J, have boys.  But we're all equally happy with another boy. At least we won't have to buy new stuff!

I am also [secretly] envious. I wish it was me pregnant and going on maternity leave soon. I like the idea of staying home and taking care of babies. I like the thought of kissing the husband goodbye in the morning and throwing my arms at him when he comes home from work. Sometimes, I dream of that life!

But that's not the life I live, so having the opportunity to do that and be that, even for just three months, is like living a dream.
