Awesome, Man! Congratulations!!

Speaking from experience...them girls are great to raise up to pre-teen and early teen years, you'll lose your hair through the rest of the teen years, then you will be rewarded when they have kids of their own and realize what a great job you did of parenting them!

My wife and I adopted our little girl a couple years ago we are celebrating her 3rd birthday tomorrow. Treasure every moment it flies by once they come around. Never take for granted what you have in a child.

Post Re: Well I'm a Dad!
At the age of 36. I feel like will never have one. I have a question seriously. I want a child but I am so scared. I don't know if it really is fear or selfishness. What's your take?

I have neices and nephews and to me are the best kids in the world.

Congrats to you and your family.

Post Re: Well I'm a Dad!
A child does change everything. Is it worth it to me yes. I was able to give my daughter a life she would have never had if my wife and I hadn't stepped in. Her birth mother is a drug addict and birth sperm doner (not even worth being called a father) is rotting in jail now. It is something that was the most difficult and joyous time in my life. The ability to do right by an innocent human if given a chance is rewarding.
That being said, I understand how life would be more self fulfilling by not having children. They make it difficult to do lots of things. My wife and I didn't have children for 7 years of our marriage. Not by choice. However, we traveled all we wanted did whatever we wanted and played HARD. It was fun. Would I go back given the choice? No. I love my daughter completely.
If you don't have children by choice then you may want to not have them and contribute to your nieces and nephews life. If it is not by choice. Consider fostering and adoption it dosn't work for everybody, but it did work for us.

Probably both! I was 44 before I had my first so there is hope. I also have a nephews and nieces I love more than oxygen, but that love is pale by comparison to your own. That's something I could never understand before I had them. That being said bringing up kids can be very stressful and can test your okra and your marriage, it's not for the weak.

Kids are like marriages. It takes sacrifice on your part to make either of them successful.
