When this blog first started, it was entitled “Birth Control: The Great Debate”. If you haven’t gone through the archives, or are a new reader interested in this subject, I wrote extensively on it at the beginning.
One article in particular was the one a commenter (Elizabeth) referred to a few days ago. She said it was a very influential article for her (and they just had twins after having been on birth control prior to that post!) Her “story” is also in the archives, and some comments peppered throughout those posts. I thought some of you may enjoy this one specifically.
Here is that post: “Just Imagine if They Had Not Been Born”

I’ll try to think of more to say later when I’m not in a state of shock!
Love to all!
Marty”
I don’t think Larry’s raise was coincidence.. do you? Just think of all the blessings they would have missed otherwise…………
Did you know that Hitler’s mother almost had an abortion? It can go both ways you know.
