Elizabeth likes to get up around 6am (William would sleep until 8 if you let him). William gets into everything and causes trouble (Elizabeth is more behaved, but she's also older). Yes diapers are nasty. So is cleaning up vomit. And bandaging wounds is always scary. There are scary dreams so they wake you up in the middle of the night. Countless things that a bad about having kids.<br /><br />And despite all of this, I love them. I'd do anything for them. And when times are good, it makes me feel like I'm living with an ideal family like the Cleavers or Keatons or Huxtables.<br /><br />Besides, when they get older, won't they sleep in more?Neil Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13023957663164567385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14005586.post-74929998466512184672009-06-15T14:17:15.017-04:002009-06-15T14:17:15.017-04:00Just when I get on the fence, thinking MAYBE I wan...Just when I get on the fence, thinking MAYBE I want kids, I come to your blog, read a post, and find out that 7am is called "sleeping in".<br /><br />No thank you.
