i was so emotional this morning i forgot to report on the meeting i went to last night. the parents of multiples club meets once a month. i went to the meeting for the first time last night. it was great talking to and hearing from parents (mostly mothers, of course) who are in the same boat. one woman even has triplets! they are thinking of creating a book of stories, vignettes, recipes, artwork, etc. themed on twins as a possible fund raiser. i think this is a great idea because i have not found many pregnancy/parenting books on twins. and the regular pregancy books only have maybe a page or two discussing twins.

one woman came up to me and said she was a newbie herself. she has twin boys and basically offered to give me anything we needed. another woman walked with me and the other pregnant woman to our car and talked about having one or two of everything. it made me want to go back and add some things to our registry. she said that she took the advice of some and just got one of certain things (like a play yard). now she is buying the second of those things because they actually NEED them. i might just add it and see if we get two of each. if we decide we don't need it, we'll take it back.

so the meeting was great. oh, and they also got their checks from the consignment sale that was last weekend. some of them made hundreds (even thousands!) of dollars from this sale. i am SO joining this group!

i've been thinking more about my job and the possibilies of staying home/working from home. i have some ideas to present to my boss and i think i'm going to do that tomorrow. wish me luck and send me prayers! if you pray, specifically ask that his mind will be open to these ideas.
