A reason to be cool

Delta and I long ago decided that having children was not for us. It wasn't a difficult decision for us to reach per se, however it is of course predicated on the assumption that all our other friends and family will engender multitudes of babies, whom we can borrow or visit when we're suffering from a void of the cute and cuddlies.

And it makes me burst with excitement and happiness that the family is, without further ado, obliging. Earlier this month, the Cos in Seattle just had a baby. Later this month, the Cos in Chicago is all set to have hers. Without even having seen them before, my heart twangs with love for the little critters. Not to mention all our little nieces and nephews already a part of the evergrowing family tree.

I send my love to all the kiddies in our friends and family. We've always positioned ourselves as the 'cool aunt and uncle' the kids could visit as they grow up. Now we're already 'aunt and uncle'. Of course, it means we have but a few years to become cool.
