[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. The reasons we have really have nothing to do with the kids themselves. The kids are amazing and I love them more than anything. They bring me joy and make me laugh. I'd give up my life for those kids, just as I would for my own children. The reasons have to do more with what we would lose from our life. Sleeping in, spur of the moment trips to Las Vegas, long, lazy Sundays, spontaneous sex amd sleep to make a few. We are really good at being married. We realize that adding kids to that would change us completely.[/quote] Yes, I was child free until I was 43 and my DH was 44. We were well off financially, owned a home, and could do just about anything we wanted to do with our days. Then, we decided to have a child. This was 8 years ago - I can't believe my child is 8! - and we can't imagine going back to our previous life. It might have taken us awhile to get here, but I have never found more joy than being a mom, as corny as that sounds, it's true. He's the light and joy of our lives!!! Not sure how old you are, but you might change your mind. Keep an open mind :)[/quote]
