Fair. As we didn't take all the vacations some of our friends did as we raised our two girls. Here is the rest of the story though. My wife came down with a brain tumor 7 years ago, and last year had a second that killed her. Without my girls, who both are really excelling(One is a doctor, other in Med school) I fear what my life would be like now. I'm a mess anyway, but those kids keep me going. I feel there is nothing in life that anybody can do that is more rewarding than raising your babies and watching them grow up and make something of themselves. Obviously we are all different and there is no judgement by me either way, just sharing my .02.

I'm sorry to hear about this, my childhood best friend lost his wife at 37 to a brain tumor last year. He feels her absence constantly and his only solace is watching his daughter grow and make her way in the world. I'm heartened to hear you're finding comfort in this as well, all the best to you.
