Technically they're not human, but...

We don't have children, but we do have animals. Because of our animals, I think I've got an inkling as to how children would be. When we married, we decided to wait 5 years before having kids.

I do 90% of the care of the 2 cats, 99.95% of the 2 rabbits, and 75-85% of his bearded dragon. I feed them, clean up after them, and usually am the one who bathes them. He trims the cats nails and cuddles with them. I gave him credit with the rabbits because he started their hutch (I finished it). He spends time with his lizard and bathes him sometimes, but I'm the primary caregiver, though he handles the set up of the tank.

He does 95% of the 2 dogs. Then, insists that I need to have more of a hand in their training, etc. I feed them and let them out when he's on his quarterly men's trip, give them treats occasionally, and refill the rottie's bucket most mornings as she drinks alot.

So, we're aproaching our 6 anniversary this summer, and we've aready have decided to wait till after our 10th... if we decide to have kids at all.
