Its Another Girl

At least that's what we are told. Its easier to be sure when it is a boy of course.

This morning was our final detailed scan for baby number 2 and everything is absolutely normal. they were measuring away, what seemed like random bits of grey on a screen apparently represent crucial signs of life and well being. I just have to let them get on with it and resist the urge to ask a question every 2 seconds about just what we are meant to be looking at. No wonder it takes doctors so long to train if they have to learn how to interpret those pictures!

And it will be a girl, a baby sis for Summer. We are about to buy a new vacuum cleaner. We are now going for the regular Henry and not the Hetty as previously intended. I cant be the only boy in this house!

It is not lost on us that this was the same scan which 18 months ago had a much bigger impact on us. So what is the result of that impact? Firstly we have a daughter that each time we look at her we are giddy that we are the ones who get to be her parents. And secondly, we know we have a good God who can do miracles in our lives if we let him.
