- I became a mother(duh!, we already knew that). Not just by the virtue of giving birth but by feelings I go through when I see you, the pinch I feel when I see you cry and the joy I feel when I see you smile
- I value my life more, its even more important for me to stay healthy and fit to see you grow and be there for you
- All the kids in the world have suddenly come into existence for me. I see older kids and imagine what you would be at that age and I see younger kids and try to remember what you did at that age.
- I value and love my parents even more now that I am a parent.
Now onto some funny, perplexing changes
- I have to remind myself to cuss less. After all, I don't want you to grow up and say that I learnt this from my mom! what an embarrassment!
- I am learning to be more patient. Just when I have had enough with your late night wails , I have to check myself from pulling my hair apart !!
- Milk, burp, potty,diapers are my latest buzzwords!
- Your poop is a moment of rejoice in the household and I give high fives for it!
- I have to check myself from talking about you all the time to people. After all I was one of those who couldn't imagine why parents have nothing else to talk about but their kids!
Shru, when I read the first bit, I thought, OMG, I can't agree more!!! And when I read the second part, I smiled, but again, I can't agree more!!!
