You don’t know anything

I was telling E that I lay in bed at night and worry that when the child comes I don’t want to act like it is a burden or another stress – I want to enjoy my baby – but then I listed for her all the things that would happen when the baby arrived.

She said, pishaw, you don’t know anything, you cannot know who that child will be when s/he arrives, like everyone else, you will be taken by surprise.

And there it is.

    One of the biggest truths I know! It will change your life in ways you cannot imagine!
    Some good, some not so good, but in the end it will have been worth it, because having children not only can bring out the worst in you, but the best as well.

    Well, I guess I’m ready – good grief!
