You cannot rationally explain why it's fulfilling to have kids. The payoff is largely emotional.
Sleeping in got old for me at some point.
That's certainly true.
As a father and a very rational person, I can fully understand you.
Especially if you don't have any kids around you and/or problems inside your family anyways.
I'd lie if I said I wouldn't sometimes love to have some alone time. But I would never go back to sleeping in every Saturday and missing out on my child.
