Morning Conversation with Abby

I was helping Abby with something this morning and she thanked me. I told her she was welcome and that some day she would do the same for her child.

She responded, "I wasn't planning on having children. Then I wouldn't be able to work as a paleontologist. Do you understand?"

I explained that she could do both, but would need a nanny or daycare or school for her child. She thought about it for a while and then repeated that she wasn't planning on it!
