Toddler + Teenager

Lately I've been going back and forth about whether I even want to have kids at all. I've got Titus and Leah, and they're the perfect blend of Toddler and Teenager.

Like a toddler, I have to keep the floors free of anything I don't want destroyed or anything that they could choke on. I have to bathe them, I have to fix their food for them, I have to clean up their poop. They have to go to the doctor for checkups a couple of times a year. They can't tell me how they are feeling or what they need, so I just have to guess until they seem happy. They like to cuddle with me. They leave their toys all over the floor!

Like a teenager, I don't have to get a baby-sitter when I want to go out. They don't talk to me. They sleep all the time.

Who could ask for anything more, right?
