Four of a Kind
I’ve never actually played poker but from what I understand Four of a Kind is a pretty good hand to be holding because the chances are against it.
In families, Four of a Kind is really playing against the odds as well. In a study done by the U.S. Dept. of Labor, 6,000 familes were studied. 463 of those families had four children. Of them, only 67 were all same gender. That’s only 15%.
Why am I telling you this? We had an ultrasound done of our baby yesterday and it looks like we’re holding four of a kind. Another girl! There was lots of kicking and wiggling and grabbing her feet but the doctor got a good look and said there were definately “girl parts.”
So we join the exclusive club of four girls and now I am officially out-numbered. And I love it!
