Alittle story about my wifes and my experience:
In 1993, we started to "try" to have a family, ie, she went off the pill. Over the next 2 years, 3 miscarriges later.. (one that was 2nd term!) we began to realize that we may
not be able to have children. The wife was really bummed out, so one day I came home with 6 dozen roses (got them relatively cheap via an aquaintence in the flower business) and a card that said "TO every cloud there is a silver lining, if we are fortunate to have children one day, we'll be rich with love! If we are unable to have children, we'll just be PLAIN RICH!". She laughed for a good 5 min. 10 months later our first child was born.
