We waited before having children but after a while it seemed natural to have children as part of our family. At times they annoy me at others they drive me to destraction, they borrow my laptop and interrupt me when I am busy but they are also wonderful at helping me appreciate life and how to take pleasure in small things.
Without the motivation to do the best for them I might still be at the meetings dying a little every day.
Other parents I have met celebrate their children and appreciate that whilst they may not be angels every day they add to lifes riches.
