Summing Up My Childless Life

June 7, 2010

Reader Sarah posted this excellent quote on her blog, Five Camels. This is one of those quotes that makes me want to get up and shout, “Amen!” And when applied to living a childless life, it just resonated with me.

Thanks Sarah.

    Thank you for the kind words! šŸ™‚ It’s a good quote for anyone, but it made me feel like, “Darn it! If I can’t have kids, I’m going to not have kids fabulously!”

    I love it! I keep thinking, “Ok, so if I’m not supposed to have kids, there must be a good reason for it. So what’s that reason?” I intend to make sure it’s a good one. šŸ˜‰
