Great article! Great blog!
Must be difficult to live in baby country and not have any. I have a CF friend that lives in SLC. She has a "childfree, non-mormon" cul-de-sac. They are all good friends that get together frequently. How rare is that?!
Strangely, I've made more CF friends in SLC than I have in Denver. Maybe we seek eachother out and cling to eachother more in a baby rabies state like Utah.
I can totally relate to loosing friends to parenting. I lost a bunch in my 20's, then a bunch in my 30's, and even a few in my 40's.
