When we had Logan, I was certain we were done having babies. Four was a handful and I had no desire to be pregnant again. I gave away all my maternity clothes, all my baby stuff . . . and then our Olivia told me she was praying every night for a little sister. She felt certain that if she prayed for a little sister, Heavenly Father would answer her prayers. I told her it doesn't quite work that way. But it did prick something inside my heart. I started to pray about it myself. And then I knew there was another baby waiting to come to our family. What I didn't know was if that baby would be the little sister Olivia had been praying for. When Jason and I went to my 20-week ultrasound and the technician told us our baby is a girl, I bawled. Another little princess to love . . . and a sister for Livi!
Now, Olivia and I are completely girl-crazy. We cannot enter a store without scouring the baby section for cuteness. As is evidenced by today's shopping spree . . .
A Girl!!!! I can't wait to hold her and tell her that she is truly an answer to our prayers!
