Itโs different than in our parentsโ day.
We can both stand at the plate glass window
and admire our little one.
She/heโs the tube with the tiny blue and pink
ribbons attached.
(We havenโt made up our minds
on the sex as yet.)
And though I know youโd prefer
a genius in the family,
Iโm still holding out for someone
more in the IQ midrange.
But thatโs for the future.
We still havenโt ticked off
all the boxes on the form.
To think that parenting
has gone from randomness
to preplanned
in just one generation.
Even โmeet cuteโ is on the way out.
Soon it will be โprogram cute.โ
Canโt wait for the movie.
I wonder whoโll play the algorithm.
