    Wow, that sounds crazy! How old are your kids? Are they old enough to be in school while you work at least? I feel like just having a dog is work, three kids all by myself would be insane. I'm sure they're very cute though to balance it out. :)

    What do you find most rewarding about being a parent? What's the biggest challenge you face? Do you have a picture of your dog??

    • AponeDec 09, 2016 at 9:06 PM

      They certainly are cute....it helps!

      I suppose there are a lot of rewarding things, but I really love to see them just be kids. As mad as I can be one minute, Its impossible to hide your smile for long, they make me smile and laugh like a kid, often.

      Its funny, before I had kids, my phone was full of pictures of my dog. Now I don't have one handy :(. He's loved, but doesn't get near the attention he used to.

        Haha, fair enough! He probably gets some attention from the kids though now to help balance it out. I'm a sucker for adorable pics and gifs of small kids with dogs. They get me every single time. If I ever have kids, I will expect my dog and baby to be best friends immediately and always be adorable together and cuddle lots, and I will feel completely ripped off of that is not the case.

    Heya, welcome to Imzy!

    How old are your young ones? I feel staying sane with 3 kids would be tough, and I have no idea how friends of mine do it.

    You should totally check out /music if you haven't, and post some good tunes over there. :)

    • AponeDec 09, 2016 at 4:13 PM

      Thanks! They are 7, 5 and 3. It's a challenge to say the least!

      I will take a look at /music, thanks for the suggestion!

        Just trying to get kids that age ready in the morning sounds like it would exhaust me for the whole day.

    Welcome! What kind of music do you like? It looks like someone else already recommended the music community, but there are plenty of other more specific communities as well. :)

    Also, I'm not a parent, but I've seen this community recommended before that you might be interested in? /positiveparenting

    • AponeDec 09, 2016 at 9:17 PM

      That's great, I will check it out. Thank you!

      And I guess I like all kinds of music (could I provide a more generic response??) I'm a sucker for anything with a funky beat. But I try to stay away from picking a favorite type of music. I'll listen to the Specials, Tim Buckley, and Clutch in a single playlist, haha.
