I've had that same murder in my eyes, too. Being a parent is HARD - no two ways about it. Some go in entirely unprepared, others think they are prepared. Nobody is, actually, prepared.

With a big, close family, it's much MUCH easier.

In my case, just the two of us, grandparents all kicking up daisy's all relatives overseas. Elephanting hard. Still it.

But, somehow, the moments of pure, unadulterated joy just make up for it all.

It's one of those things you have to experience - because however much you try to explain both the joy, and the tiredness, non-parents just don't understand.

don't get me wrong, I don't think 'everyone should have a kid' - far from it - there should be an exam - but once you've been there, some of the crap parents have said in your past suddenly makes sense.

And, when your boy is a toddler, in the public toilet, and shouts out loud enough for everyone to hear "Hey Dad, your willy's really big!" it somehow makes it all worthwhile Wink | ;)
