The only reason to have kids is to create clone humans to take your place when you kick off.
Any other reason to breed pales in comparison to nature’s need to reproduce your genes. Unconditional love, feelings of worthiness, premature ejaculation, and one-upping your sister all fall into a distant 2nd place for reasons to spawn.
Patrick and I are raising our girls for us to each have our own Mini Me, as you can see in this photo I took this past weekend at Star Tours.
We’re successfully raising goofball, Star Wars-loving, Disney World-going nerds who will do pretty much anything for a laugh to replace us when we die.
You’re welcome, universe.

Great parents always make Star Wars and tomfoolery a priority!
It’s morbid to think that we are all gonna die. But at least you were able to reproduce a copy of yourself. You’ll be so much happier when you leave this planet earth. How old are your cute girls now?
Nice post! I had fun reading it!

Love the lomo-effect, at one point it’s true that childhood is the best that life can offer.
Man, I’ve really been missing out on the long-term view! Here I was thinking I had V to do my housecleaning for me! (Is it wrong that she’s only 4 and yet when I tell her she’ll soon have to do all the cleaning she just rolls her eyes at me?)
