It’s A Girl!
I am referring to a book that I have been reading, ” It’s A Girl ” Edited by Andrea J. Buchanan. I read and commented before about the book, ” It’s A Boy ” and ” Literary Mama .” I enjoyed those books immensely, and so I was happy to also read this book.
I don’t have a girl, I ended up with three boys. It’s not that we didn’t want a girl, we did! But, our lot in life was to have three boys and I love them endlessly. When we didn’t know the sex of one of our babies, we did wonder if we would have a girl. Before we had kids, we decided on two boy names and two girl names. The girl names we picked out were, Melissa Michele and Heather Lynn.
The notion of having a girl seems to worry many fathers-to-be. Yes, the girl will probably be “Daddy’s Girl” , but I think fathers really worry about the teenage years. By reading ” It’s a Girl “, I realize that mothers worry about things as well. Some mothers worry about their girls being too “girly.” Some wonder if girl preferences are taught or are natural. This book brings to light answers to those questions and other topics from the points of view of mothers raising girls.
