I will join in on the life sharing. My wife and I are both in our 30s too, with no kids. I reaaaally want kids, but my wife is in no hurry. We will see what happens in the next couple years. I would like to have kids by 40.
So the only kid we we have right now is our buns buns, named Peter. I thought a pet bunny would be boring, but he is hilarious. Quite the personality!
Then, the family dog that we all helped get for my parents, is the Golden Retriever, Sherlock, that you see. Our family LOVES Goldens. Every time I go back to visit in PA, he greets me by laying on top of me...cuz, you know...Goldens think they're Lap Dogs and have no concept of personal space. lol
