- stop carrying a purse... wearing only coats with big (stuffed) pockets
- taking ownership of eye gunk, stray boogies and the general picking at baby's face
- rely on soothers ( pacifiers, binkies, dummys - whateveryouwanttocallem) to, um, soothe my baby
- insure I have extra soother in the big pockets at all times
- gage my walking distance by if I need the nappy bag
- turn down invitations to a night time art opening because it conflicts with (my) the baby's bedtime
- walk the baby in his pram endlessly so he gets a good nap, even if I am bedraggled and it is raining
- let baby watch Baby TV (yes this exists)
- question my choices and want to run away -- for at least 10 minutes
- imagine baby will be a pianist/genius/president/artist/ etc. because of some perceived acute awareness of hands/light/faces/colour, etc.
Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. -Marcel Proust
