My reality is different than my imagination when it came to learning about parenting. There are things parents NEVER tell you that you have to learn on your own.
It's amazing how much love you can feel - so much your heart actually aches from it.
It's amazing how things that once grossed you out now become second nature - like the slobbery fingers shoved in your mouth or sharing that wet cheetoh. LOL!
It's amazing how the sound of their laughter can make the whole day seem that much brighter.
AND it's amazing just how much WORK it all is. Now you have to be aware of every daily activity and you have to teach them everything. They don't come pre-programmed so it can be both fun and frustrating. We are amazed everyday at what they can do and how fast they learn and also at how much they depend on us to teach them, take care of them, and be there with and for them.
My boys rock!
