Happy Darwin Day.

200 years ago Today, Charles Robert Darwin was born in Shrewsbury England. And am I forever grateful, for if it wasn't for him, the whole world would still believe the biblical story of Adam & Eve as how we humans came to be.

I wonder, if she has been trying for 43 years to have a child & she miscarried almost every time, why wouldn't she adopt, say, 25 years ago? Not to mention, why would she start trying to conceive at 17? I mean wasn't she still in school then?

And in about 10 years, she'll be old enough to be a great grandma. So when her boys are in grade 5, they'll have a conversation with their peers that'll go something like: Ethan: My mom is 36.
Twin A and Twin B: Our mom is 70, Ethan: Gee, your mom is as old as my great grandma. That is, assuming she's still alive.
