Today was one of those days

Today I found out my first child will be a boy. I'm beyond excited.  Someone told me earlier today that I would be a good boy mom... and I think that was the first time I realized I was okay with it.  William's attitude up until today made me have strange feelings about being a boy parent.  Don't ask me why, or how... it just did.  Deep down I kind of always figured it would be a boy... but I was resisting it.  (Again, I blame William ;) ) But as I saw our little Levi yawn today, I didn't care.  I was just waiting to hear that he was healthy.

The rest of the day has felt like a whirlwind... I could't focus on work and the kids were off their rockers.  I had a first as a "teacher" today when I felt truly sad and defeated at a choice a child made.  A child stole from me today.  And I caught him... and I can't explain how hurt I feel that a child would make the choice to steal from me.  All he had to do was ask for what he wanted... I would have given it to him.  I know parenthood will only make me feel like this a million times over... but boy was it rough.

So today was just one of those days.  A day I will never forget... for many reasons.
