Super Powers?

One of the options we have, through IVF, is gender selection. It would cost a few thousand more and most likely not be covered by insurance. Upon hearing we could choose, Jeremy's excitement of having a baby went from 1 to 10 in no time. Of course we would pick our baby's gender, and it would be a boy. Not keen on messing with nature more than we have to, it took a lot of gentle urging on my part to discourage him. Poor guy. His imagination had gone into overdrive. My beloved husband, being somewhat of a sci-fi nerd, had already imagined down the road the possibilities of genetically engineered children that would be super tough, or even better, in possession of super powers. Who's to say it can't happen...someday? :) I promise Jeremy, if they ever figure out how to genetically engineer embryos to have anti-gravity powers or the ability to teleport, I might consider it.
