If so, why do you want them / how do you like it?

I hope this can be more of a wholesome post about cute stories, instead of more dooming and glooming.

    I worked with a guy a bit older than me and once he told me “you know, I love my kids and would never regret them, but if I had life to live over, I don’t know I’d have them again”.

    I have a three year old. He was right.

    She just brought me pretend water I didn’t ask for from the water dispenser on the fridge. She used to bring me real water but I disabled it after my laptop was sitting in water one morning.

      In my experience, the “terrible twos” are a dream vacation compared to three-year-olds.

      Hang in. It gets easier soon.

          Sorry, dude.

          Best wishes to you that they walk an easier path.

          Even then, it’s all worth it, and you’ll miss these days eventually.
