I'm wondering...

I was having an online chat with a friend who is swamped at work; she said those to whom she answers expect miracles from her. My response was "The reward for doing a good job: more and harder work."

And then a couple of minutes later I said "Must be why I had another child LOL" and now I'm wondering: how true is that, really? Is it just a pithy quip that has no basis in fact? Or a truth I hadn't realized until now?

There's a hmmm moment for you.
