I have felt for the past several years that L and I have quite a charmed life.  We are healthy, wealthy, living in a beautiful part of the world surrounded by more great friends than we have time to see, and we have a solid trusting, loving relationship.  Others we know have health problems or relationship problems or other heavy issues.  We’ve always had it easy.

Except in the baby-making department.  I don’t believe in religion or blessings or curses or any supernatural cause of “luck”.  But from an odds standpoint, I felt well statistically something must go wrong at some point.

And now here we are, charmed once again.  (bock bock*)
