Third Youngest

Okay, that’s cute. “They liked us.” Very cute. But listen, hand on heart: what did they want, Your parents, with the nine of you? Pursuit Of happiness on such a scale would daunt Caligula–although I kind of get it (Although I don’t) if they just didn’t know What action led to what. I’d give them credit, If not for wisdom, then for passion. No: Is this that natalism thing?–I’m kidding! You should’ve seen your face! No, honestly: Did they keep aiming for a boy and missing? Were they on a campaign or on a spree? A little fun? Another vote or two– What did they want? I know it wasn’t you.
