about having children.

(NB: this is just a fun game about the things that make you wanna have kids essentially)

i thought this would be fun and interesting to find out. i asked my sister this and she said she wanted to have children so she could dress them which i found amusing cos it is totally the truth. lol.

Mine is building forts out of furniture, taking camping trips around the country, building crystal radios/race cars and all that other cool stuff you can buy from shops like nature dicscovery and letting the kids camp in the back yard.

for me, these are the things that sum up all the reasons i wanna have kids, and the things i cant wait to do with them. what is yours??

Hmmm...... taking them camping, outings to the zoo etc, chocolate for breakfast on xmas morning ( a family tradition), spending time at the family bach on Waiheke Island and just in general teaching them new things and watching them grow

Ahhh that was nice and deep and meaningful

Poking around 'discovering' things together, the fascination or excitement in little things that us adults don't think about anymore, the cuddles, watching their personalities develop.

LOL Bizzy!

Orginally (ie before giving birth) it was a yearning to have someone to look after. I just wanted someone to feed, dress, bath, cuddle, overall care for.

Now he is here, I want another one as watching him become a person is just awesome and I cant wait to experience it all again... (not that J is not still being awesome LOL).

But umm, yes, dressing him is a lot of fun (oh as is being told constantly how gorgeous my child is).

When they wake up from a nap or in the morning & come to Mummy for a sleepy cuddle.

I'm really looking forward to taking Alia skiing this year cause each year she gets stronger & so much more confident.

I so looked forward to getting them all dressed up in the wee outfits, you do get over that pretty quickly lol.

I can't wait to travel round the world with my kids and learn about the world together.

There are several for me

Playing with the toys again (without getting looked at sideways by other adults)

Getting excited about stuff like Christmas etc and creating new traditions

Dressing them up

But most of all it was just all about the love they give you in return and those little hands curving round your neck to give you cuddles.

The unconditional love! I never understood it until I had kids. Its a love the is so strong it actually does physically hurt. Especially when they come and give you a big cuddle for no reason other than they love you. awwwwwww

Teaching my kids to bake and cook with them standing on a stool in the kitchen in a folded down apron

Reading and re-reading all my favourite books from when I was a kid.

And Christmas and birthdays and family gatherings and camping (when we come home to NZ) and summer days at the beach and backyard cricket ....

Yeah, basically being a kid again

Well, I figured having kids would be a good way to ensure I got grandkids one day .
When I was 6 , my life ambition was to be a grandma one day .
By having kids, stage one of my goal is halfway complete.
How exciting

I get excited about the curiousity, and seeing the world from a fresh perspective.

The having somebody to love, a little piece of me, and watching my baby grow.

I get excited about jumping in puddles, going on adventures, and baking together.
