Boy or girl?

As long as I've thought about having children, of course one of the first things on my mind is what gender my children will be. If I'm brave enough to have four I sometimes want to have two boys and two girls so each child will have a sibling of the same and opposite sex. My husband wants the typical boy and girl and for a long time that's what I thought I wanted as well....until I saw how crazy being a girl is these days. And I can only imagine it will get worse. We were at the mall a couple of weeks ago and while in line to get some bubble tea, we saw these two girls around 14 or 15 carrying Victoria's Secret bags and wearing way too much makeup, little tiny tank tops, and shorts that are only as long as the back pocket. It made me want to put a sweater on them and send them home to their mothers. Or maybe slap their mothers for letting their child walk out of the house like that. Or just curl up and cry at the thought that maybe the mothers expect their daughters to act like that, or gave up, or really don't care.

Now, I don't want anyone to get upset or offended at this. Of the many blogs I've had over the years, and mostly given up on eventually, I always had a post where I had to say that this is my space and my area to give my opinions. If you would like to share your opinion, as long as you don't tear me or others down in the process, you are welcome to comment.

Back to my point....

I don't know why I now think that having all boys would be preferable to girls, aside from the possible sluttiness issue. I mean, I wouldn't get to dress them up in frilly clothes! (Oh wait, I was never a frilly girl and don't give a crap about that. Silly me.) My favorite color is blue and maybe subconsciously I want a baby that I can dress up in all those beautiful shades without everyone thinking I have a boy. Who am I kidding, my kids are going to be naked except for their cloth diaper all the time! At least they will be if they follow the preferences of their parents....;-)

At this point I am so tired of waiting to have kids that I will take whatever is given to me: boy, girl, or anything else that decides to pop its head out of my hoo-ha. Oh man, this could get scary....


P.S. Sorry to those of you who thought I was announcing a little Buck in the oven...not yet.
