The Gum Tree for 2004 September 14

and why are we not having any? That is the question of the week for us. I just found out yesterday that a friend of mine is going to have a new delivery within the next 9 months. A little while ago another friend told us that they are going to have their second child. Furthermore, today as we went to dinner in the cougareat we saw Kara, another friend who after a summer in New York with her husband has come back pregnant. Now, not many of our friends are married without children. Those circumstances have been germaine to much thought and discussion about children and everything that comes with them. I suspect that we will have children in about three years (when I am in my second year of Medical school), but we have been thinking about the subject. It will be great to have children once it is the right time, and I think that the time will come soon enough. It is suprising, however, that in one short year nearly all of the married people my age with whom I associate regularly have started having children. Of course, there is no hurry, and once that time comes I think (hope) we will be ready. Life is really wonderfull, though, and there is much for us to be grateful for.
