I never took note of it when it happened, but earlier this past week I took out my braids. In the middle of the night my head was extremely itchy and finally I couldn't take it any longer so I got up and took the majority of them out. I think it probably took me the same amount of time to take them out as it took Rashoa to put them in.
My eyes are being opened more and more to the huge responsibility children are. I've been told multiple times by various couples that when kids come into the picture it changes EVERYTHING. Obviously it's going to require great sacrifices, but I believe there are great rewards to having children, as well. I suppose if you've enjoyed several years of being alone as a married couple having a child may slightly sour the sweet relationship you've developed over the years. Children add stress- especially on he mission field because there are so many diseases they could easily catch and their immune systems aren't strong enough to fight them off. But Stacy has told me it's been more difficult for her and Marc to connect now that they have children because they're so busy with the kids.
