It seems like just yesterday all you ladies announced your pregnancy's and here we are with babies and births! It all just amazes me. It is nice to have so many babies and mommy's on the board. Such a lovely, amazing, group of women we have here! I am completely awestruck by how much we have all grown and gone through and yet, here we are still writing to and with one another. I hope it stays this way.

Re: Am I crazy...
Yes I agree, I feel like the minority now with no kids but that's okay. We are planning for kids in a few more years. I'm so happy for all the new moms though!

Actually, my life has changed very little since getting married. And I'm quite happy that way for now. There is plenty of time for change later.
Oh my gosh, the statement wasn't a criticism, so I hope you didn't take it as such!
I just meant that society often looks at the big events in life as the things that change us (marriage, house, baby, jobs, death, etc) and I don't know that's doing justice to how we grow and adapt. This is going to sound totally cheesetastic, but I was thinking of the whole life is a river metaphor.
The banks of the river may not change, and it flows by the same patch of trees, houses, mountains. You might walk past the river every day and think to yourself that it's the exact same thing that you always see. But while the path of the river may not change, the water of that river - what flows past you every day -is different every second. So, the river, on the surface, looks the same, but content wise, it's not. I think of life similarly. We're informed by our life experiences - who we meet/where we go/how we deal with these things. As a stupid example (because I'm in the middle of IEPs right now and can't think of anything better), if you stuck your hand into a toaster and got burned, you probably wouldn't stick your hand back in because you've learned something from the experience. That's what I meant when I said we're always changing in small ways.
