I chose this name because I know having a second kid right now will bring all kinds of challenges. I'm sure there are days that I will want to hide in a cave and never come out (I already feel that way sometimes!) but for now, I stand up to this little one and say BRING IT ON, SPAWN!
Sure, there will be that diaper smell in the house again because I know I'm too lazy to go outside to dispose of EVERY.SINGLE.DIAPER the instant a #1 or #2 escapes.
Sure, there will be no sleep for, gosh, how long did that phase last???
Sure there will be unfathomable amounts of laundry for such a little person.
Sure, we will miss out on many, many fun things we "could have done."
Sure, we will have to schedule "mommy and daddy time" - assuming sleep deprivation doesn't make us forget what that is.
But,
You will be loved.
You will make our hearts swell and sometimes break.
You will enrich our lives.
You will be appreciated.
You will make it all worthwhile.
No pressure or anything... ;)
