He hates that acronym, "for the win." The other day in the car I asked him if it was hard for him too, hearing our friends talk so much about parenting the previous night, parenting we wish we were doing but aren't. And may never. In response to this or something else, I can't remember exactly, he really hit the nail on the head about trying to have a kid after two miscarriages: "I no longer think of all this as something we do in the hope of having a kid. It's just this thing we do that brings us pain." Ouch. Yes. Devastating. It's so true. This thing we do--counting the days, testing pee, getting tested, avoiding caffeine--that brings us only pain.
