And here are a few examples:
1. I now know what lap pads are.
2. I can pack a diaper bag. (My mom had to pack the first one because I had NO IDEA what to put in the thing.
3. I can do almost any household chore absolutely silent.
4. Mowing your lawn, allowing your dog to bark, driving garbage trucks, calling the home phone and various other loud noises should be avoided between the hours of 8-10am and 1-3pm.
5. A sleeve is as good as anything to wipe a snotty nose, drool or spit up.
6. Showers aren't entirely necessary.
7. Sleep is overrated.
8. Sid the Science Kid and Baby Einstein are God's gifts to mothers.
9. You NEVER stop needing your mama. (Even if your 30 AND live 2 states away.)
10. Babies change every relationship you have.
