My neighbour's human child turned 1, and we spent today at her Birthday party. :) (But instead of posting a picture of the world's cutest baby, I have posted yet another picture of her dogs!) :) Even though she is the sweetest, smiley-est, happiest baby on earth, and I do like her very much- the whole thing sort of felt like stepping on to another planet, full of mothers and children and people asking me if I have or want kids!! I'm quite happy not knowing yet, thanks! While I feel very maternal with my pets, this tends not to stretch to children- I'm far too impatient, busy, obsessively neat with the house, and I enjoy things like sleep and silence! I like babies but I feel like the novelty would wear off pretty quickly. I tend to find them annoying once they're old enough to throw tantrums. Of course there's every chance this would change if I fell in love and married someone who wanted kids. But if that never happens, I think I could be quite happy with dogs- that would be enough for me :)
