Parenthood!

Why is it the girls always have to fight over the same thing every day? I have a playroom full of toys but if one has a toy then all the others want the same one. Looking at them arguing and screaming at each other its hard to remember the younger days when everything was new and fresh. I remember when I was pregnant with my first, sitting there in the hospital room waiting to be induced...... It was the most scariest point of my life. I had got use to being pregnant but hadnt really thought about the aftermath...... the Baby! And there after 16 hours of labour, there she was, my beautiful first child. I still remember her looking up at me with those big blue eyes and nothing else mattered. There was no fighting, no noise, no washing, no ironing, no tidying. Just me and her! Then 3 years later number 2 and 2 years later number 3. My life took on a whole new meaning with every new baby born. There is no more going out to work, my days are filled with cleaning, tidying, washing, cooking, puzzles, playdough, dressing babies, tickeling, giggeling and appreciating every single moment I have with them because before I know it they will all be at school, having boyfriends and asking to go out (scary). My job is much more important now. I was once told that being a parent was the hardest job in the world, I now know that to be true... making sure you guide them in the right direction and getting the balance right between decipline and support. One thing that I do know is I love my children like no other perfect or imperfect and I wouldnt change them for the world!!! Theres no more babies in this house for sure...... but I am so excited for the people in our lives to become parents especially my close girlfriends. I know that every single one of them will make awesome Mummys..... they are loving, caring, funny, supportive, loyal and I am so looking forward to sharing that experience with them!
