Joys of Having Children

I've been swearing to Mama Lai that my biological clock is ticking and joked to Mama Lai that maybe I should reboot my career and become a surrogate.  Garnering her experience from churning out three of her own, Mama Lai laughed:
"You silly girl.  Pregnancy is the most miserable part of having children!  The best part is...."
And then Mama Lai's smile disappeared and she thought, and she thought, and she thought.   A minute later she said:
"Actually I don't know what joy there is."

  1. How can Mama Lai said that "Actually I don't know what joy there is."

    Mama Lai is just lying to you Jamie. Can you tell how content and happy Mama lai was which was revealed from all three pictures of her holding you (or Katie) on her lap?
