I saw someone on Instagram post this passage from Rob Delaney’s book, and I think it sums up having kids nicely.

Whenever someone tells me they’re expecting their first baby and they’re nervous,
I tell them the following:
“Oh my goodness. that’s wonderful. I am so happy for you.
Listen, of course you’re nervous but here’s the deal: you’re ready for all the bad stuff. You ve been very tired before.
You’ve been in pain before. You’ve
been worried about money before. You’ve felt like an incapable moron before.
So you’ll be fine with the difficult parts! You’re already a pro.
What you’re NOT ready for is the wonderful parts. NOTHING can prepare you for how amazing this will be.
