Two years ago today, we became first-time parents to a baby who has become a very high-energy little boy. Since then, I've learned that sometimes parenting is:
- struggling to keep my temper when he is misbehaving at the dinner table...
- comforting a moaning, sick toddler while his vomit runs down my back and leg into a puddle on the carpet...
- lingering at the door of the bedroom and trading "night night" and "love yous" for a while...
- ... all within a span of 2 hours.
It has been quite the roller coaster ride, and the ride has only gotten more wild with Zach's arrival (he turns 3 months tomorrow!). I'd be lying if I said I didn't periodically think back fondly to single and childless days. Still wouldn't trade 'em for the world.
Happy birthday, Duncan.
