Book plug

I just finished the best book I have read in a really long time. Its called, The Book of Names by Jill Gregory and Karen Tintori. Seriously a must read and can't put down book.

Here is a brief book overview:

Within each generation, there are thirty-six righteous souls. Their lives hold the key to the fate of the world. Now someone wants them dead.

When a childhood tragedy comes back to haunt Professor David Shepherd, he finds himself in possession of knowledge that holds the world in a delicate balance. He uncovers the Book of Names---an ancient text originating with the biblical Adam, and thought lost to history forever. By Kabbalistic tradition, the book contains the names of each generation’s thirty-six righteous souls---the Hidden Ones---by whose merits alone the world continues to exist. Legend holds that if all thirty-six Hidden Ones were eliminated, the world would meet its end.

When the Hidden Ones start dying of unnatural causes, the world grows increasingly unstable: war in Afghanistan, massive flooding in New York, brutal terrorist attacks in Melbourne, a tanker explosion in Iran. David finds himself battling against the Gnoseos, a secret religious sect whose goal is to destroy the world by eliminating all of the righteous souls. David’s involvement quickly turns personal when his stepdaughter’s name is discovered to be one of the endangered. With the help of a brilliant and beautiful Israeli ancient texts expert, David races to decipher the traditions of the Kabbalah to save the righteous souls, his stepdaughter, and perhaps the world.

Whats meant to be, is meant to be? Am I meant to be the momma of 5 kids? I could barely wrap my brain around the thought of having 4 in what seems like forever ago, but 5?!
And Sam is so needy...I ran to Wally tonight, which is a hop, skip, and a jump away from my house, within 10 minutes of being there M calls to tell me that Sam is screaming and crying uncontrollably. Now he was asleep when I left. Its like he has an internal clock telling him when I am more than 20 feet away from him. Doesn't help that the poor boy has the hives and can't figure out the trigger :(

Why did I get myself in this predicament? I know that I will have baby fever for the rest of my life, I have come to grips with that. I just don't think I can mentally and physically spread myself any thinner, or our finances. Mark and I will both be working til we are put in the ground, thats not a question. I just feel so discouraged with myself. And I feel bad that I can't see the potential blessing. I don't know anyone that doesn't see having 5 kids in this day and age as irresponsible and I shouldn't give a flying fig, but I do. I hate people to judge my family.
I really need to test, I know I do......
