Unrest.

It's 12:30, middle of the night. Two precious girls have somehow snuggled in between mom and dad and mom should be sleeping. But I can't. 

Tonight I have a heavy heart. Heavy with thoughts of adding to our family. Derek and I have been discussing this very topic over the last few weeks, and we don't feel like we have any clear answers yet. With Claire and Nora, things were easy. We decided we wanted to have these precious babies, and we did. This time it's different. Things have changed for our family. 

I'm not sure where this will go. Maybe a year from now we will be holding a third baby Embry, or maybe we will just be enjoying the two littles we have today. Either way, we are a house overflowing with love. 

There's not much we are sure of at this point. The one thing Derek and I do know is that there is room in our hearts for another child. How (or if) that child becomes a part of our family is still unknown. 

Here's to clarity. And here's to getting some sleep once in awhile.
