"Mommy, can you have a brother for me?"
"I can try, but you don't get to pick what you have. If mommy has another baby, it could be another sister."
"Why can't you pick? I don't want another sister. I want a little brother."
"Well, it just doesn't work that way. God gives you the perfect person for your family. Sometimes it's a brother, sometimes it's another sister."
"Can I pray for a brother?"
"Sure, but God doesn't always give us what we want. Even if you pray, you might not get a brother."
"What if I pray a lot?"
"It certainly won't hurt."
He closed his eyes and offered up this sincere plea, "God, please give me a brother. Gracie screams a lot and I think we just need another boy around here. Not a girl. Amen."
