When they set it down, it was satisfying but, perhaps, a bit light. After a few months, they begin to realize just how lovely it really was. At least, that's a fairly common experience, I find. And if I am with child, I gotta look into getting a c-section quick. Ain't no way I wanna deliver the little squirt naturally. ;) Pastoral is so simple a tale that most people find it grows in their minds after they’ve finished.
