Yeah...I guess...but you kinda know the same sort of people, I think. Most people want big families, and I'm already getting old by that standard. Not that anyone but me said that, but I do feel it. And considering I haven't even had a close friend in about four or five years...it's hard not to get discouraged. Especially since I don't really want to move, and don't really know that it would make a difference if I DID.

Well, if you're supposed to have a big family, God will give you three sets of triplets!

I know it's discouraging. But getting depressed doesn't actually help. I'm not going to say, go out and do something about it - I don't think that's our job, as women. But... if you did move somewhere, it might help. After all, you're a lovely, conservative Christian woman. You're intelligent, into computers and books and mildly geeky things. And you like large families. And maybe that's not... in demand, in Vermont, but other places maybe it would be.

BTW - just for your own interest... I've been researching Fort Collins, CO quite heavily. One thing they have is a really excellent public transportation system. If I ever convinced you to go out there with me, you could take Bilbo along and he'd be able to get around.

Look at the bright side. If it is taking God this long to prepare the one just for you he must be taking extra care to mold him just right :)
