Within a day of each other, I heard news that 2 close family friends had a new bundle of joy. Arlene and Richard have a baby boy, and Marie and Jerber have a baby girl.
New borns. There's just something about a new life that makes me giddy. I woke up feeling so happy when I received a note from Richard that Arlene had given birth to Marc. I just walked around with this stupid smile on my face. Then later I received a photo message and I started showing it off to people...like it was my very own child. I felt kinda dumb doing it so I stopped later in the day. Not like it mattered, I already showed it to a half dozen people, who ooohed and ahhhed and the same time thought I was weird. Eh who cares ... I was happy so I was sharing my happiness to people. Can't blame me for that!
The idea of giving birth still sends chill down my spine but seeing its fruits just makes me smile. I'm glad it's not me who is having to bare down the child and pushing with all your might to get them out of you. I just like the end product. Having my friends complain about their pregnancies just makes me think adoption is the best bet. But you know I'm all talk though. I'll eventually have my own, when the right man and the right time comes. Right now, I'm perfectly content to ogle over other people's babies.
