My new pet peeve is people that have kids and do NOTHING but WHINE about how tired they are, and how I should "enjoy my time to myself, because I WILL NEVER HAVE THIS MUCH FUN AGAIN!" Huh???? So apparently, my life will suck if I have kids, and I will NEVER have any fun. Gee, thanks people, I'm so glad you think so highly of your own children. Glad to know that everything goes south when you have kids. Maybe I should run out and get my tubes tied right this minute. I'm not sure why people feel like it's some revelation that children make you tired. It is nothing new. McDonald's makes you fat, alcohol makes you drunk and children make you tired. I also know first hand how much joy children add to your life. Sure, sometimes you might have want to pull your hair out, but it's worth it to hear a little voice saying something like "Miss Rachel, I love you." I can only imagine that feeling will be magnified ten-fold when I have children of my own. I for one, am looking forward to being woken up in the middle of the night because I am the only one that knows how to scare monsters away.

Kids in the house just make everything complete, happy, and knowing you are a family. Good things. Even now, when my kids are around it still feels right. Enjoy it passes very quickly. By the way I know first hand the craziness in your schedules. It is hard I'm sure to not leave work when a little boy bounces into the room because he wants to play with his daddy. How great is that though! It may not always seem like it but, these truly are the best days. Kids in the house just make everything complete, happy, and knowing you are a family. Good things.
