"Only difference - having kids was an essential part of marriage for me."
For a long time I figured what's the point in getting married unless we were going to have children. Things didn't really change much after I got married. I'm wondering if marriage really makes much difference without children. (My wife's expecting soon.)

Being a parent is incredible.
Every day is something new and every day it gets even better.
All the people who warned me about tantrums, teething, midnight wakeups etc. - it's all worth it. Like paying a nickel for a Maserati.

Children make a difference--a very good difference. Just wait...

I'm wondering if marriage really makes much difference without children. (My wife's expecting soon.) Marriage is a small change compared to the first child. Life is forever different after that. Higher ups and downs, but a major change from the adult life you enjoy now.
