Some Good News for a Change

Good news for a change!

We are expecting baby #2 around June 2009!  I can finally post it cause we kept it a secret till the 3rd month.  Told the family so now I am telling the world :)  We are excited, and more relaxed this time around.  So far anyways.  Have the jitters once in a while, wondering how to handle two kids, a 5yr old and a newborn.  DS will do well I think.  He's at a age where he can help if he wants too, or not.  No pressure there, he can do whatever.  I don't think he 'needs' to be a good big brother by helping out.  He'll be a great big brother by just being around :)  He's talking about making the baby laugh when it's crying and such.  Such a good boy!  We want to find out if it's a boy or girl.  Thinking of M names.  I like Molly for a girl and Mason/Miles for a boy.  But my mind can change between now and June :)   Xmas is almost upon us and the snow is everywhere.  Looking like a white Xmas after all.  Even with the rain that is supposed to fall Xmas Eve there will still be enough white stuff, just messy as heck!!  Only day of travel is on Xmas Day, off to my parents.  Can't wait to see DS's face when he sees what Santa brought him :)

So Sad

What a sad situation on the stabbing in Shwa last week.  The little boy (3yr old) died, the mother died and the father just passed on yesterday.  The 5 yr old is still in hospital.  Hope he's doing ok.  Nothing like innocent lives being snuffed out too soon.  The parents weren't even 30 yet, the kids just so young (around my kiddo's age)  The person who caused all the chaos is dead as well, shot by the police.  There is all sorts of fundraisers going on around town now for the family.  Hope they can get enough to take care of that little boy that's survived.

That's all I am thinking about today, that poor little boy.  Who's going to take care of him now that is mom/dad and grandma are all gone.  There is family near by, think a uncle, hope they can take care of him.  So sad.  I imagine they don't have a will either cause to be honest who thinks of a will at 26/29?  We finally got ours done just this year and we are in our mid 30s.  Terrible I know, but to be honest it's kind of a mortality kind of issue with me.  It does give incredible peace of mind when it's done.  So if one thing can be said of this issue, do a will, single or married, young or old.  You can get the legal kits through Chapters for $30 or go to a Lawyer and spend around $500.  Do it, or else the government will decided what goes where.  Do you really need them to decide what to do with your stuff when they can't even decide on what to do with the stuff they have now?
