Today it was just me and Bryce. My neice has been throwing up for days now and I don't want Bryce to catch it, so she stayed home with me. (Kyle wasn't able to keep her and mom watched her yesterday!)
After a walk to Exploration Place's Park, I was doing some thinking on the way back. While Bryce was talking away, I started to think about my single stroller and what I would do with it if we had another baby. Would I take the new baby in the single and live Bryce at home? (I really don't know if I'm strong enough to push a double stroller and B is getting bigger and heavier!) This made me sad. I've done EVERYTHING with Bryce. We are like 2 peas in a pod, my little shadow. I can't imagine leaving her with someone else and taking another baby somewhere without her. Don't get be wrong I want more kids, lots actually, but I would hate for Bryce to think I don't want her to be with me or to think she is not special. I guess we will have to see... God has a plan and I just need to sit back and see what happens!
I also have decided that my calling is to be a stay at home mom. I love the days when I get to stay home with Bryce. These days are not "easier" or quieter. But they are more fun! I get to watch Bryce learn new things and say new funny things. I hate that I miss so much throughout the work days. I know I'm lucky that I get to spend many holidays, Spring Break, Christmas Break and Summer with her, but I don't know if it's enough! It makes me sad to think that she will soon be off to school and I won't have a reason to "stay home" with her. If we have more kids, then it could be a possibility, but with just her my days are dwindling away...
I feel so blessed to have Bryce in my life and I don't know what I would do without her!
