• Having babies and baby names

  H&I are not very keen on kids on most days.  I have actually never wanted one and only started to ponder these two years.  We dislike complication, stress, worries, budgeting, childbirth, raising, playing and teaching, and the lack of freedom.  We dislike spending extra money and time and effort, bringing kids to the doctors and doing kids activities and going thru school again.  We dislike having the added restrictions in life and carbon footprint for a not-very-smart nor grateful person who created.  We would much rather spend the time investing on ourselves, enjoying our friends, our vacation, and giving a lot of money to charity when we die.

  That said, we cannot say that we cannot afford financially to have one.  We cannot say that we will not want one one day.   We cannot say that we will not change when you have the baby and it is a stage in life.  We are ok to have 0 or 1 kid.  If it happens this year, it is meant to be.  I find it difficult to actively avoid having a child.  The irony of life.  You can be viewed as selfish or having made the wrong decision either way.  Perhaps I will escape from these accusations by saying, it's god's will one day.

  Either way, I love playing with names:
