There’s no denying that priorities change after you have kids. Responsibility goes up a notch and your life takes a whole new direction. Even science approves of the fact that women, for example, undergo major hormonal changes during pregnancy and the lactation period. No matter how hard it can be at times, most people would agree that there is nothing better than being a parent.

Then there’s dirty diapers that sometimes fall off…
Oh and there’s the potty training thing…
Children can get messy when they eat.
And when they brush their teeth.
Sometimes they might break things.
Nothing is safe.
You’ll spend much of the time making sure they don’t hurt themselves.
You’ll have to keep an eye on them. If you turn your back for a few moments…
You’ll never have a good night’s sleep.
They are mean to their siblings.
They fight with their siblings.
And smile about it.
You’ll never get privacy.
Sometimes you might get notes and cards that will make your heart melt.
