My pastor is the same way (maybe we go to the same church, no mine has two boys) we actually call him Ray Ramano because he is so socially clueless and has a heart of gold. It just struck a chord with me at the time because I believe every child born is part of God's plan for the Earth...I even believe my GD is because whoever is showing up next would never have been if I didn't feel the continuous need for a daughter. I pray all your dreams come true and that you continue to reach out to the right people like you are doing. Prayer is amazing and powerful and to be honest I wasn't a believer during my last pregnancy my faith is only a couple of years old. It is making me more confidant to feel like Christ is walking this path with me (no matter what the outcome) and I don't mean to exclude or make anyone uncomfortable. Just sharin' the joy!!!

PolishPrincess and NeedAGirl- it feels like you took the thoughts out of my head. I don't even allow myself to think about the real possibility of having a girl because it physically hurts. And people act disappointed all day long. Or worse- I was pregnant with my second when an acquaintance with a pigeon pair asked what I was having. I made a concerted effort to sound cheerful when I said "Boy!" and she said, and I quote, "HA, HA!". Yet people are so quick to judge if you admit any inkling of a preference. So glad there are people who relate!
