Having kids is not easy, they really take a lot of time, the most of the things you wrote are true. But it is unbelievably wonderful to dive into their love, to rediscover world with them, to share their success and share your own success with them. A year ago we had even switched to homeschooling and we enjoy every single day of kids being with us.
We are a very busy artistic family. We have our own businesses. We have a lot of plans for ourselves and we are not going to be that kind of people you described who don’t know how to live alone without kids.
We are spiritual, we follow Yoga, Ayurveda, we are vegetarians. We are glad that our daughters share that with us. With such a start I am not worried about their future.
And yes, it is a work to be a parent. But it is a wonderful part of your life. Once they leave parents' house you have a whole life in front of you. You will have enough of time to make what you want. But there will be no chance to have your own kids if you miss it now.
I was in both childbirth of my daughters. I was the first who took them on hands. I saw their first steps. I help the eldest one to improve her language as she finishes her first novel being 10 y.o. Every week I’m impressed with a new oil painting of my 6 y.o. little angel.
Oh yes! That’s wonderful being a parent 😇
Kind regards, Paul.
