A Child's Prayer

Bixente is such a sweet and funny kid. One day he asked me, "Mommy is Hallie Jo my sister?" Me: "No. She's your cousin." B: "Mommy, where's my sister? I want a sister." Me: "Oh, you do?"
B: "Ya! Please Mommy?" Well, what do you say to such cuteness? I said, "Well, baby, that's something you'll just have to ask Jesus for." He then immediately clasped his hands, closed his eyes and said "Heavenly Father . . . Another brother, another brother, another brother." Apparently he wants another sibling, but does he want a sister? Or does he want a brother? I couldn't tell for sure from that conversation. =) I'm sure some day he'll get his wish. I just thought it was a cute story.

The answer to that one is simple. You can just have twins, then he gets both a brother and a sister at the same time.
