Predictions

Ginger made a bold prediction yesterday. 


Ginger: "I know what your birthday surprise is going to be when you turn 40 next month."


Me: "Oh, really?" (secretly hoping she's not really going to reveal something and spoil my birthday surprise)


Ginger: "Yup. Your surprise next month will be getting pregnant again."


Me: "Ummm... yeah, that's not going to happen. Boy, that would be a surprise, though."


Ginger: "Oh, it's going to happen. I know. I have the Inner Eye." 


Hmm... maybe it's time to put a ban on Harry Potter books. A charlatan, that's what that girl is. Nothing but a charlatan. All of this "predicting-the-future" stuff is rubbing off on Big, too, it seems. A few weeks ago he told me that I'm going to have another baby when Edith is four. He says he's positive about it. All of this talk makes me nervous, I know that. And it's something about the look in their eyes. Maybe I should send them to work at a carnival.

Wow, now THAT is a prediction!! I know how old you are, because I'm that old, and having a baby 4 years from now really doesn't sound fun. But you're right... maybe there's some money in all this talent if you send them to work at a carnival.
