I have just been watching a show on tv called ‘Eight boys and wanting a Girl’ and I am feeling just so bloody angry at the women featured in this documentary. All of them had at least four sons, all those boys were beautiful and healthy kids and yet their mothers were not happy because they could not produce a girl.

I have five sons myself and I would not change them for anything – nothing. I am grateful beyond words for the beautiful boys that I have been blessed with, and when you have healthy kids you ARE blessed and you’d better believe it. There is something innately wrong with people who cannot be content with what they have, the children they have, so that they become obsessed with what they do not have and possibly will never have.

I admit that had I had a daughter somewhere along the way it would have been lovely, just as lovely as the boys I had. But I didn’t, I don’t seem to ‘do’ girls and, well, so what! I would not change a thing, I am one lucky woman.
