Raising a child has made me want to become a better person and improve the world that she'll grow up in.
Children copy what you do, for better or worse.
4/ Having kids makes you realize how precious time is
I would easily give up sleep to re-live how it felt to hold my daughter when she was a baby.
Time seems to speed up after having kids when you want it to slow down (most of the time).
5/ Having kids helps you value the small, good moments in life
You know the phrase "stop and smell the roses?" That's what my daughter likes to do when we take our evening strolls.
Seeing the world through her eyes has helped me slow down and enjoy life more.
6/ Having kids gives you peace
In between the tantrums, there are many peaceful (yes peaceful!) moments.
With my daughter, I don't need a beautiful sunset or fancy dinner to experience these moments. They happen daily while eating ice cream, playing legos, and holding hands.
