Aroma De Pat

Maybe I won't stop Shae from looking up baby facts. I've complained enough about it that today she actually went out looking for new ones. Along the way, she found this great tidbit:

A Swiss study found that a majority of women unconsciously choose mates with a body odor that differs from their own natural scents, which, as a result, ensures better immune protection for their children. "Longevity" magazine reported that the genes that battle disease-provoking substances also influence body odor.

If that's true, there is a good chance that Shae chose me as her mate based on the way I smell. So my marriage (and the twins) can be attributed to my gas. Who knew?
