Before I was 100% sure I wanted to have kids, despite years of being a babysitter, camp counselor, and teacher I sat outside and parent-watched.

I could see love flourishing in the mundane. It crystalized for me how their days were better for having their children with them. They weren't just a responsibility, they were companions. I saw that I would create a font of love and joy.

She's been my constant companion. We've talked about everything she's thought of. She dreams and makes plans of her own. She always wants me to be involved, too. I love her- and I'm sure it shows on my face when we go out together.

The way they turned their face down to their children, bent to hear what they said better. The way their faces softened while listening to their kids. The way they tucked them close before preparing to cross the parking lot. Their delight in getting to offer a little treat.

After my first was born, I couldn't stop taking pictures of her and talking about her. She was like a new best friend- we went everywhere together, did everything together - and I wanted to introduce her to everyone.

I approach change at a glacial pace and I prefer 100% certainty before making a choice. So even though I really enjoy children, I had a deep respect for the permanent and life-changing nature of being a parent. I also had hefty fear of getting in over my head.
