1. It’s amazing how much you physically and mentally aged out once kids are present.  I started to have gray hair and my memory space in my brain is shrinking tremendously.
2. You forget that you and your hubby actually love each other. 
3. Eating out??  Forget it.  Carry out or delivery is your best choice.
4. Talking about your kids has become your 24/7 topic.
5. All the sudden your hubby has all kind of reasons not to help out.  My favorite one is he cannot bath our son because of his back problem, and yet refuses to see a doctor.
6. You are no longer feeling guilty about adjusting your work schedule to accommodate your child’s situation as long as it’s reasonable (e.g. skipping lunch or work late so that you can attend your child’s play, taking sick/vacation day when your child is sick).

Needless to say, I don’t mind any of that so long as I can see the smile on my child’s face, hug my neck and say I wuv you mommy!!!
