16. We've been told . . . |

(my husband and I) that we're "selfish" for not eeking out a couple of kids to join our families' every widening circle of grandchildren, cousins, nieces, nephews, etc. And maybe it's true that we're selfish, but we're perfectly happy with one another, our cat, our godson and goddaughters, and friends' children. We sort of see it as our responsibility to honor our rational selfishness; after all, if we had human children, we'd be the ones raising them, not the grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc.
End of rant.
