"God changed my heart years ago about how I view children and that heart change has not changed. As far as having another one, I would love more if God saw fit. Bu t, I also realize that may not be possible. I may not be able to conceive or even give birth to another full term baby. I know that there are others out there that may have opinions, and that's OK. They can have their ideas and their opinions, but I'm the mom. I look in the face of my daughter Jill, who was born after my twins of which I had pre-eclampsia with them, and I think, "She wouldn't be here if I had decided I'm not going to allow another gift in my life." There's no way I can please everyone, but there's one I do want to please, and that's my Lord. And, if my relationship in my heart is right between Him and I, then all the other stuff will work out." ~Michelle Duggar

i saw that too :)
That's good! I say go with what the Lord is leading each to do,no matter what others may say. Everyone will either have something to say....either positive or negative. I've heard it from both camps. No matter if you are for or against having more children it can get ugly. I just keep my mouth closed and trust that each family is doing the thing the Lord wants them to do. I am not the judge of anyone's heart. And like Michelle said....."There's no way I can please everyone, but there's one I do want to please, and that's my Lord. And, if my relationship in my heart is right between Him and I, then all the other stuff will work out." Amen sista!! Amen!!

So true...and I'm with you-I love her too. She's so sweet-it was great seeing them in person...I know some people just don't understand, but like she said, it's okay-as long as we please the Lord! I'm gonna have to work on a blog post...what can I say, I've just been lazy, as far as blogging goes. I liked your post about the schedule, too...I may need to work on mine and do some fine tuning as well. Maybe it would help me.... =) Hope all is well with the Whites!
I LOVE her :)
