Amazing Life

Isn't it amazing the whole thing about having a baby? I was in the OB office the other day with my daughter. It was interesting to see the varied moms-to-be and their accompanying spouse, friend, mother, or grandmother. All different stages of pregnancy and some even had their babies and were there for their checkups. I watched one older gramma who was in a wheelchair but sitting with her daughter? granddaughter? Nevertheless, it was very interesting to think of the whole life process while I watched her, the one she was with and the young children and new babies there. Different stages of life. I was wondering what the older woman was thinking. Did it remind her of her pregnancies? Did it bring good or bad memories? Did it make her think of how short life is? How quickly time flies by. It made me think of the same thing. We have lived through a lot already and want to share that with the new generation who is not really as interested in the changes as we would want them to be. Nevertheless, they will live through the same kind of changes in their lives in the coming years. Again...amazing. Begs the question...what's it all about? and why? Answers to follow (literally)!
