It's Best to Wait

I have always known that I eventually wanted children, but I was not in a hurry for them. To be honest with you, the whole birthing process just didn't appeal to me. Translation: The actual act of giving birth scared the crap out of me.

Now, I have baby fever. In fact, I have baby fever so bad that I don't really care that I have to give birth. If giving birth gets me a baby, then I will do it! What? Who am I? Have I been possessed? What am I saying? I'm actually in shock! I never thought these words would be coming out of my mouth. I guess mother nature has a way of preparing you for these sorts of things.

Michael and I have talked about it, but he isn't quite ready for children. I have happily agreed to wait. We first decided to wait until the end of this year, but after finding out a friend is getting married in May of 2010 we decided to wait until after their wedding to begin trying.

Well, I think we might have to wait just a little longer. Here's why:

This past Tuesday there was absolutely nothing on television that Michael and I wanted to watch, so we decided to watch "America's Funniest Home Videos". I was having a great time watching the show and giggling, but Michael didn't even crack a smile. That is until a toddler came waddling onto the screen only to be knocked down by a huge black cat. He laughed hysterically. The only videos that made him laugh were videos where small children got knocked down. I mentioned this to him, and he simply replied, "It's funny to watch kids fall down". Ummmm, yep this is a definite sign that it is best to wait! :)

Oh, and just so you know-my husband really is a sweet guy. I promise he does not go around knocking down children and laughing. In fact, my niece had to write a paper in school about someone she admires. She wrote about Michael. She said he was smart, and funny, and he took her to Chuck E. Cheese. See, she didn't mention anything about him knocking her down! :)
