ugh.
But that doesn’t make you any less right.
Right now, I am trying to romanticize a child-free life. It’s not working.
]]>The only difference between us is that you’re having your own. And I’m not. One day though.
I will say, the less ‘romantic’ conception gets – the more mechanical and unsatisfying the whole process becomes. So a definite kudos in assisting others to MYOB.
]]>I think you’re right. You’re lucky to have a different viewpoint than some women though – you have the experience of being a parent.
And yes…you and I both know (being in similiar but vastly different circumstances) that having kids is not the same as having your own kids.
Yes…it’s still a joy. Yes – parenting is, or at least can be, stronger than blood. But.
You know there’s a but there.
We want kids. We want our own kids. And we’ll romanticize it if we like. In fact, if you’re infertile, I think you need to romanticize it more – positive thinking goes a long way, in my opinion.
Anyway…I hit a tangent.
Good post. That’s what I meant to say.
