Thank you for mentioning not wanting to go back to when he was little. Everyone tells me "you'll miss when they are this age" but I know I won't. I think it will be better for me qhen they are a little older and a little more independant. I think some people look back at infant and toddler stage with rosw colores glasses. Or maybe its just because I have twins but this age isn't enjoyable for me. Neither was infant when both my wife and I were up every 3 hours to feed, not really able to take shifts since there were 2.

Everyone also told me I'd miss High School. they were wrong, I despised High School and the memories of it. I do miss college though, mostly because I was manic without knowing I was bipolar, felt amazing and I had plenty of disposable income from my job at the time so I never got into financial trouble.
