Worth It
J. M. Strother

Diapers
And feedings
And late morning squalls
Snug sacks
And back packs
To carry it all,
Lots of lost sleep
And pacing the floor
But I'd trade if for nothing -
The love of it all.

My dad always said that he would not pay a dime for another kid, but wouldn't take a million dollars for any of them (he had five). Children certainly are a life changing experience, but worth every minute. Congratulations, Diana.

And congratulations to dialyn too, on your pending retirement. I've still got three more years. I'm not too jealous – grrr.
