Quiet Moments

I love sitting watching my girls sleep sometimes...specially when I see Isabel curled around Abigail so peaceful, unfortunately half the time Abigail is plastered to my leg and I cannot move without waking her. Ah well could be worse I guess :) They have been laughing and playing with each other again today. Nice to see that they can occupy themselves. And thinking of the twins makes me think of that 'worlds oldest new mother' who died recently. Now at 65 or whatever she was to have IV treatment, lie about her age and find 3 years later she is dead from a tumor. Now ok I know some people live to be over 100 as her mother did but seriously there is a reason why women cannot conceive beyond a certain age. It's cases like this and Nadia Suleman that give IV treatments a bad rap. Now IV helps thousands of people who are having trouble conceiving, that I have no problem with, friends I know have had help and this world would be missing wonderful creatures without it. But can we like like have a sense of responsibility?

I sometimes wonder where responsibility for our actions or the lack of taking responsibility and blaming everyone else or anything else for why things don't turn out right when arguably we made a bad choice. Instead of looking to lay blame elsewhere stand up and admit you made a mistake.
