Although I'm a new mom,and do not have profound advice to offer,I thought I should take up this tag as a fun thing to do!
1. This too shall pass - There have been times when my babies have been absolutely impossible to manage,and a few hours after that,complete sweethearts! So now when I'm having a I-cant-do-this-anymore moment,I try to keep in mind that this tough moment will pass,and will be followed by a fabulous,blissful one.
2.The village - Any parenting issue I come across,there is someone who has already faced it before and dealt with it successfully. All it takes is asking,there are plenty of people willing to help.
3.ShowerPower - Just taking a quick shower is so incredibly refreshing.When I step out of the bathroom freshly showered with no spit up on me or my clothes,I feel like I am ready to take on the world!
4. The great outdoors - My babies are so small now,they still enjoy getting out of the house,be it a walk around the block or a few hours at a friend's house.
5. Sleep is over rated - We are yet to get a full night's sleep. Each night,we feel like we cannot possibly survive one more day like this,but somehow,the morning rolls around,and we manage to make it through the day!
There are so many times that I feel completely paranoid that I must be doing something more for the kids,that I must be doing more reading,I must be researching more about the best way to do this or that,I am fervently hoping and Praying that at the very minimum,I raise my kids to be well mannered and socially conscious. That in itself will make me proud(yes,I have very low expectations).
