Omen or Common Mistake!

During my pregnancy with Benson, my sister-in-law Kim gave me a book called, Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child.  If you have read it, you know that it's AMAZING... I think i turned to it more than the scriptures during those first few months, which is very sad!  I do have to say that Benson sleeps the way he does (Great) because of that book.  

Anyway, I finally gave the book back to Kim after I had ordered my own on Amazon.  I waited and waited and finally the book arrived on my doorstep.  Anxiously, I ripped open the packaging and to my surprise, this is what I held...

I guess I had clicked on the wrong book, which was easy to do because they look exactly the same besides the "TWINS" word and a picture of two babies instead of just one.  

My heart sank, and was sure it was an omen... that my next pregnancy was going to be with twins.  I have always wanted twins because I know how much fun it is to be a twin, but after having one, I realize that it was insane for me to wish for twins.  I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason, which is why I still shutter when I look at this book sitting on the counter..

I don't know whether to send it back or to keep it just in case it really is an omen... What do you think I should do? :)

Oh that is funny! A family just moved into our ward with a 3 year and triplets. That's right. I don't think she can be older than 22 and she has 4 kids. I don't know what you should do as far as sending it back. I am just grateful mine come one by one.

I am laughing so hard right now. It actually took me a minute to figure out what was wrong...I'm still laughing. I'm with you in the fact that I always thought twins would be cool until I had one. Now, I think those parents have a one-way ticket to the top! You can keep it & just look at mine if you want, or send it back & if you do have twins, I'll buy you the twin book. Love ya!
