I find myself lying in bed, thinking to myself: I’m not sure if I can handle having a second child.
It’s most probably the uncertainty; the having the rearrange everything again that scares me. It’s not just that children are a lot of work - it’s the tight-rope-walking feeling when you realise they are the one thing in life you really don’t want to mess up.
Update: Nope, I’m not writing this because Faith’s pregnant.

Oh boy, oh boy! Congrats, guys!
Lucian, try not to worry too much. Somehow you'll manage, with God's help and the support around you (your families and friends!).
How far along is Faith? How's she feeling? Guess it's too soon to let Anne know.
You guys take care!
Oh oh, guess I wasn't very clear. :)
Faith's not pregnant, we've just been discussing whether or not to have a second.
Hey, although I'm still far and long from being a father. I'm understand the anxiety that comes because my sis is facing the exact situation as you are; Whether or not to have a second child.
Especially that all those sleepless nights. The amount of time and concentration you have to invest on the newborn, is tiring.
Not to discourage you, but I'm sure that in days to come, Anne will appreciate that both of you bring her a younger brother or sister =). The laughter that both of them creates when playing, the smiles that they bring to you and Faith.
It's definitely worth the investment! :p Besides, both of you are really great parents. Take care eh!
Oops, I read the fine print wrongly!
As a mom of two, I have to agree with raynor ;p
Not to scare you, mine fight a lot. But there's something so special about the bond between siblings, nothing comes close. (You know what it's like).
And it's more than just the sibling thing... every child is unique.
I too feel having children are an awesome, if not the awesome-mest, responsibility man can have! It's a personal decision -- your choice at the end of the day. And if you go ahead, He'll make room in your hearts for the new addition!
i bet you love having sisters kor =)
