Several people have asked me what I thought of giving birth. My most basic summary is it was like finding out that every mother in the world had run a marathon, or maybe an ironman. Seriously, it is a very arduous physical undertaking and it's phenomenal to me to think that all mothers have gone through that (with varying levels of difficulty, granted). So, sometime soon, thank your mother for giving birth to you...she deserves it. And thank your father too because taking care of an infant is very taxing and challenging and he lost lots of sleep because of you too! All that being said, the memory of the pain does fade with time and truly that first moment I got to see my baby made it all worthwhile.
