Lol, I guess we have different perspectives :)
It's definitely a lot more work than I remember. I'm glad I got my 'baby days' out of the way while we were still young (although I've had plenty of friends having kids in their 40's or raising their grandkids, so I'm not going to be too cocky about it for fear of it being a challenge to the universe or something!)
I'm just a glutton for punishment.

And please for the love of everything holy and unholy - DON'T CHALLENGE THE UNIVERSE! Something out there loves to laugh at us.
Oh my. I can NOT imagine!!! Our kids are 26, 22, 21, 19 & 17. We had them lose together, but I suppose there were a few years of just pure chaos in there that I'm sure I'm forgetting :)
I will definitely avoid the challenging of the universe! :) Good luck and LOTS of luck to you!
There had to be some pure chaos in there that you're forgetting :D
