You go out less Babysitters are expensive and if you get home at 11:00am , you feel like it's 3am The kids get sick and you get sick They're not that expensive... yet. Mine are little and playing with the bow on the box is often more fun than the $100 gift that was in it. They love you, so much it's unbelievable. They're a lot like you in many ways. -My daughter is just like my wife and my son seems to be more like me. It's neat They require constant interaction and supervision right now. I'm exhausted much of the time. They love the movie Frozen. Fuck the movie Frozen. ghostoffuffle knows what I'm talking about. They allow you to re-experience things from your childhood. -Awesome They ask tough questions that get you thinking.... They make you more selfless They make me more driven to succeed They poop and pee and you will get it on you They think you are the strongest and most brilliant person alive I NEVER regret the decision to have children. I do wish we had a live-in nanny though :-)
