Fran -- I understand what you mean. You should see husband and me smile and goo goo to every baby we see in the store. We certainly do not want one, and we are not even ready for a grandkid (I feel too young at 51 and also don't want to be asked to babysit!!). I'm thinking the adorable, happy little babies remind us of happier times. I don't know. Just guessing.
I have a friend who is going through wanting to have another child at age 44, and her daughters are 10, 12, 14, and 16. She opted for a new puppy!! Good choice.
