NUTTY
So, Mark and I are officially not having children. That's cool. His reasons (already posted) are good, but honestly they're not the same reasons I cite for wanting to remain childless. As, I've briefly mentioned before, I work (or worked as it may be now) with special needs children and babies. It's truly difficult to work with this population and not realize what a huge job parenting is, and it's a thankless job for the most part as well. I love kids, I enjoy working with them, and I'm thrilled to have a new niece as well as Mark's nieces and nephews. I'm just not excited about taking on the 24 hour job of parenting. Someday, however, I look forward to raising a puppy.
