Why?

Friend: What is the logic behind having a kid?
I mean, why in this world would I want to disturb or give up my current life?

Me: There is no logical reason, only an emotional one.

Friend:..and which is?

Me: Someone to love insanely and having someone who loves you back even more.
Such a beautiful relationship as a part of your life makes it so awesome.

Friend: (Raising an eyebrow sarcastically) That's your reason? Isn't it too much of a  trouble for this?
It is such a major responsibility and my life is gone once I become a mother.

Me: That is such an awesomely perfect reason!
And about the responsibility bit, well, I love having this responsibility. I love having to create a little person.
It does overwhelm me at times but a step at a time and it works.
As for my old life, I don't miss it. I just don't.
I miss some activities rarely but very momentarily.

Friend: And then why did you scream that day on whatsapp saying you needed a break? (sarcy smile)

Me: Who said that I don't feel like pulling my hair out and sneaking away to check myself into a hotel room for a full night's sleep?

And I know what I will do if I ever check myself alone into a hotel now for a break.

Friend: And what is that?

Me: I will check pictures of his on my phone through the night :-)

Disturbingly illogical and profoundly fulfilling, truly.
