Its amazing how one week you think your life is going one direction and then something happens that turns you a totally different way. I had begun to feel so at peace with our family of six and really happy about our boys growing & becoming more independent. And now..... baby number 5 is on the way. Wow. 5 kids? I am overwhelmed with the 4 I have. This is such a shock! I know this is a wonderful blessing but I cant help but be totally freaked about all the 'logistics'.
*I dont think Benjamin will handle this well at all. He is my baby in every way. Nathan will be thrilled- he loves babies, Cameron I am not so sure!
The most difficult part will be that we may end up sending Brendan back to school. I want what is best for him and if I am not going to be able to give him that then I need to realize it & do the right thing. I am also struggling with wondering if it is really fair to keep him home with a house full of babies & toddlers rather then kids his own age.

Amy, it's all going to work out! If homeschooling is important to you, don't talk yourself out of it. You can do it! Just remember what matters in the long run. If you feel right about sending him to school, then do it, of course, but don't do it if you aren't confident. We are still trying to un-do some of the effects of sending Gabe to school and that was just 2 mornings a week at a Christian preschool. Anyway, I am here if you want to talk!
Congratulations on the impending arrival of baby #5. I agree completely with "mama' and that things will work out.
I also agree with her on you have to do what is right in your heart about your oldest and school.... HUGS!!!
