Potty training, unsuccessfully. I think we've concluded the kiddo needs more time before jumping in. I've never experienced stress on the levels of a walking talking pee bomb before. I've been on high alert all weekend, and had to call in some backup today. It leaves you exposed.
Whoever you think you are, wait until a toddler is marching around the house with no sense of reason, no diaper (instead, undies), and no bladder control. You'll know just how easy you'll crack under pressure.
It'll come with time I guess.
You really do sacrifice a large portion of your identity for the sake of your kids. But I can't wait until they are able to enjoy the things we enjoy. Until then I am but a humbled Sheppard, working on enjoying the things they currently enjoy.
becoming a parent soon... man, what am I in for
It's a trip! Full of highs and lows, but, as cheesey as it sounds -- nothing is more rewarding! You'll have sleepless nights, you'll be grumpy, but one day you'll be grumpy and your kid will look at you and say "why you grumpy!?" And snap right out of it. Every time my daughter does that I can't help but laugh. it's almost accusatory in tone! She's a cheeky kiddo.
