Things I really appreciate now that I'm a mom:
- Short story collections. I really don't have time for a big honkin' novel (although I did manage to read The Da Vinci Code in a week, but that's not really literature).
- Public restrooms with well-maintained changing table stations that I'm not afraid to touch.
- Bouncer seats.
- MY mom.
- Meals that only require one hand to eat.
- Ceiling fans. No need to purchase pricy baby toys if you have a ceiling fan in the house!
- Baby smiles.
Things I really appreciate about my child:
- She's not the children I see in the library. Of course, she's only 2.5 months old, but she's still better behaved than most of the kids there.
- She's a happy little pork chop.
