thistlechaserThese egg cartons are both cute as heck as well as Earth-friendly!
Apparently they're made by molding hay in a hot press. I had no idea you could even mold hay!
And on to the problem...
I ran to the store on my lunch break, and stopped my car in the middle of the parking lot to let a man and his young son walk by. The kid was SO cute. I found myself smiling and thinking I maybe wouldn't mind having one. WAIT WAIT STOP HALT BACK THAT TRAIN UP I've never wanted kids (not since I was 5 or 6 and didn't know any better). I've never had a desire to spend time with kids. I really really don't want one of my own... so where in the world are these feelings coming from?
If it's my biological clock, it's running more than a little late. (Apparently biological clocks are really a thing -- I googled it!)
That little boy may have been the cutest thing I ever saw. I couldn't even compare a puppy or a kitten to him (which is just wrong; everyone knows that nothing is cuter than a kitten!).

So much this. And it's eighteen years AT THE LEAST. Do kids ever really grow up and stop needing things? My sister is 40 and my mother just had to fly across country to her to help during/after a medical emergency. A KID IS FOREVER
I totally feel you on the last paragraph, too. I feel like I'd (probably?) be a good parent for a kid. I'd make sure they were educated well, I'd show them how wonderful books are. I'm financially stable and would certainly share interests with a kid (YAY SOMEONE TO PLAY WITH).
If I were going to do this (NOT THOUGH), I'd adopt or take a foster kid. The idea of a baby growing INSIDE me (HI PARASITE) and me giving birth? OH HELL NO THANKS
