I think about this question a lot.

I have 4 kids. I wonder what my life would be like with none, and then every combination beyond that: just the first one? I’d be an empty nester next year? Just the youngest? Just the girls? Just the boys?

I look at my life in seasons: HS, college, my 20’s, my 30’s and so in until now. Each season has something new and exciting to offer. Am I excited to be an empty nester in my 60’s?? Hell frigging yes! But I would change having kids in my 40’s.

Kids or no kids life is fabulous when we live in our truth.

Not wanting kids doesn’t make you “bad” it makes you self aware.
