The joke is on the kids, when they realise what kind of world they were brought into.

These are not mutually exclusive.

Perhaps, this was what you were missing.

Yup. Love my little toddler. They are also a horribly willful little chaos agent that I often find myself wanting to duct tape to a wall. But I was that kind of mess when I was young too.

Immensely frustrating, miss my free time etc. But also the most rewarding adventure I've ever been on.

I saw it in NYC a few years ago. It looks like it was painted yesterday!

I've heard a few different parents say the first two years are miserable, after that it's a lot more fun.

Every minute was a blast.

I never liked kids before, but I have no regrets. I've got three now. It's hard, but I'm enjoying every day.

Nothing worth having comes easy
