When Patrick was a baby I used to have the same image flash into my head all of the time. I kept picturing myself older, driving a sedan, and looking into the back seat to see two young boys sitting together. The boys were very close in age, and the premonition was very intense. I never had any doubt it was my future and these were my children.
The older Patrick got, the more I freaked out, thinking 'I'm going to have two more boys, but what about Patrick? If I don't get pregnant and have another baby, that means that he won't be one of my two boys'. I couldn't figure out how Patrick fitted into the picture of two young boys, very close in age, sitting in the back of a sedan.
I'm 29 now, and have a Camry. D has a son who is 7 months younger than Patrick. The other week, I looked around at Patrick and O sitting in the back of my car, and thought 'thank God'.
I can't tell you how relieved I am.
