Tongue-in-Cheek...but not really

Okay, I have seriously had several thought-provoking ramblings rumbling inside this little brain of mine, but for now, this is what you will get. A little venting...but mostly humor. :)

I am debating on my new standard answer for all of those people who feel it is their duty to ask me, open-mouthed after founding out we were just blessed with our (gasp!) fourth child, whether we are done yet or if we have yet figured out "how that happens." My sister in law showed me a tongue-in-cheek article in a parenting magazine before I had Joy that made me giggle on this topic. Wow...I wish now I would have saved it. But...my naughty little mind isn't having much trouble coming up with my own this morning! So in response to: "So...you're done now...right?"...

1. Gosh, I'm just not sure. James didn't have enough items to deduct for his business on this year's taxes....so....

2. Well, you know...we homeschool...so, if I want to keep my job...

3. Ya' know, we just figured that God said "Be fruitful and multiply"...James and I kinda got a late start on this whole following-Christ deal so we figured we would make up for lost time by obeying this command with gusto!

4. Well I just don't know? We thought at one point, maybe we would just trade in our oldest for a new model...

Okay, so this probably isn't very funny to those of you who don't get "Nicki humor" or love me enough to overlook it but it gave me a giggle this morning. Sometimes people just give me the nudge I need to remember to watch my own conversations and how I respond to people. 'Cuz seriously people...it kinda takes the joy out of enjoying your new lil' one when someone stops to admire her and then says "But you're done now right?" We have a big happy bunch...and we thank God every single day for the full, crazy houseful that He has blessed us with.

Hope you laughed. I will work on a more serious post later...but right now, it's kind of crazy around here. You see, I have FOUR children running around....
