I have three children that I love dearly but it’s not always easy being a mom. I remember a long time ago when I didn’t have kids and life was much less eventful but it was quieter. I sometimes think what life would be like without my kids and it makes me sad. Even though there is a lot of stress that can come with parenting, I would changing having them.

It’s difficult to explain this to people who don’t have kids. I remember when people tried to tell me about having children. I couldn’t understand how it could be so hard to have them and be responsible for them yet you love them so much you couldn’t imagine your life without children. I understand this now of course.
