Your thoughts on having children are interesting. I remember being terrified of the responsibility of taking care of my first child. For probably the entire first year, I couldn't believe I was in total control of such a tiny needy person. I think the gravity of that responsibility is what made me so depressed post-partum. Luckily, though, that feeling has faded. Now I only sense the enormity of the task every once in a while... I will look at the girls and wonder how they are ever going to fend for themselves... I also remember a feeling more directly related to yours -- before I had Quinn I thought babies were delicate and.. well, annoying. Of course, that changed when the baby was actually mine. :)
I am going nowhere with this. I just wanted to share my thoughts with you.
