I see a lot of commentary, especially on Lemmy and Reddit, about how awful children are and how wonderful adulthood without kids is. And if you don’t want them, more power to you.

On the other hand, many people are parents and love having children! I want to hear some of the positive stories. What about being a parent makes your life better? What’s your favorite thing about your kids?

    3.5 months in with the first baby. It’s a massive commitment and we’re going through the trenches but holding that baby and getting a smile makes it all worth it.

    I can’t wait to make memories with them and hopefully more babies cause I had a few siblings growing up and it was fun.
