Micah's B-day!

Four years ago today The Lord blessed me with my last sibling! Micah Ethan was...well...a surprise to more than one family member! Being the oldest of six I had come to love and hate being told that another "Bundle of Joy" was on his/her way! Not only did it mean more anxiety for me over whether the child would be a boy or girl but it also meant that sooner (rather than later) someone would receive a new (loud) roommate. For the announcement my parents took us to the beach and it was absolutely freezing! By the way! I kinda have this thing called "baby intuition". What that means exactly is this...I know when a baby is coming!! Okay, maybe I eavesdropped on my Dad when he told a Deacon in our church that mum was pregnant! But come on! Mum was starting to look round. Anyway, when they told us that we would have another sibling we all went ecstatic! I believe someone even started doing backflips! Then the count down began! And what a count down it was! So when six months came and Mum went to get her sonogram I was on edge!! When they came home I stood next to the couch and Mum told me,"It's a boy!" I smiled and tried to put a brave face on. Unfortunately, that face didn't last long! I burst into tears because (of course I already had Felicity) but I had hoped against hope that this sibling would be a girl! Well, four years later and I absolutely adore Micah!
