*These are my comparing sentences:
Saving money is harder than spending money. When one has children, the most interesting changes happen in life. The fascinating wonders of having children, is that they are beautiful beings to have. My cousin does not have children and I do so I am busier than him. It seems that we are happier than him, because he is always at work and spends less time with his wife. I am always with my family and we have the most wonderful days a mother can ask for. Children are more expensive than having just a fiancé and it makes my cousin a better money saver than me.

Thank you!
For the three comparatives and three superlatives, I only had two superlatives?

Is this what you were talking about? To include "deep" between "surprisingly" and "in"? Then to remove the "s" in "students"?
Both of them went to a pricey university and they were surprisingly deep in debt with a couple of student loans. In the end, they managed to save money happily for their perfect wedding.
