I hope it is a boy. I have felt the whole time that I’m having a boy, too. My darling boyfriend says the same, but he is sure it is a girl. So the bet is on! Of course, I just want a whole and healthy baby. 5th of December is our expected due date.

I want the baby to be really wild and stubborn and crazy. As soon as he turns one and can walk he will hit people with sticks and throw rocks at them. This because it is much better to have a child with fire and spirit, that kind of person will always find his way to manage and cope. I will just have to instruct him what not to do. I much prefer this rather than having to always encourage a shy baby to live, live, live!

I hope to be a mother able to recognise my child’s natural talents and have the skill and wisdom to mould them and help them bloom within my child. I definitely don’t want to always shout “no, no, no” at him or her, trying to force him to change to behave some way or other that I myself find appropriate.
