At that age...

Last night was Stitch n bitch, and towards the end of the night, the conversation turned towards babies and kids. One of the girls' husband wants to try for a baby, my other friend is feeling ready to have kids. The girl whose husband wants to try for a baby is going to be spending time around her nieces and nephews over the holidays, and she said that is the best place for her husband to take her, because "kids in the abstract are sticky and messy, but when they are kids I know, they are so sweet and I love them."

I didn't really say much during this conversation, because I know I'm in the minority with the no-kid thing, and not willing to take on the full-time plus job that is raising kids.

But it got me thinking...I'm at that age now, where more and more of my friends will start having babies, start wanting them, and I feel like I won't have much to talk about or contribute because having a kid takes over your life, it is your life.

Just rambling, I guess.

I know exactly how you feel. It's difficult for me too, because every once in a while I have a change of heart, but then I go to Target, and then I don't want kids anymore LOL Ever notice that screaming children is Target theme music? ;-p
