they had been married for about 4 years when they (mainly she) started getting that itching for a babe. sure they had a dog, who she treated like a baby, but they decided it was time for the real deal.
wanting to educate herself, she read up on the subject matter, discovering that a woman's egg is the size of a quarter. the husband disagreed.
he: i don't think so honey
she: yes it is. i read about it
he: no way
she: yes i promise
he: absolutely not
she: i read about it on the internet and it showed a picture
he: you're a woman, shouldn't you know this?
so they went to the web site together. turns out the picture was comparing the size of an egg (a very hard to see dot) to a quarter...with that settled on they went. months went by, then a few more months.
he: maybe we should just get another dog
she: absolutely not
feeling discouraged, she saw her doctor. patting her shoulder, he consoled her and gave her some magic pills, assuring her that it would do the trick.
and....whaabang! wouldn't you know right away a little person was formed.
the family of a man, wife, and a fluffy dog are soon to add a little baby into the mix. a whole new adventure is about to begin.
