On Coming to Fruition, Family-Style


...and we're back!

We'd all like to believe we're consequences of fairy-tale romance and that our inception was an inevitable byproduct of love at its purest. But in the real life version, it's a safe bet that mom wasn't rescued from atop a concrete tower in real bad need of a haircut, or that dad wasn't the bad-ass warrior-hero reminiscent of, say, Costner in the overly-criticized yet mesmerizing Bodyguard. Regardless of how you happened, the lessons to be learned from those who preceded you are specific to the moment and times from whence they came. Take them with a grain of salt, know you can defy them, and then sleep restfully knowing no matter how (un)romantic those initial moments might have been, romance (and life) is what you make of it. Enjoy!
