As a mom I have gained bionic hearing, a blood hound's sense of smell (I can sniff out a poopy diaper from a mile away), and a hint of ESP. I have survived sleep deprivation and the demands of a screaming baby. I can go for a week without doing laundry, showering or brushing my hair. Yes, it is true. Even the Marines have nothing on me. I have learned valuable lessons like not biting my nails after changing a diaper, the consequences of running out of formula or baby's spare outfit. I literally know what it is like to be "up to your elbows in "it." I can be in the midst of full out meltdown (see the elbow remark) and still answer the phone like June Cleaver. And just when I start to get a big head about all of these "accomplishments"-scratch that-"survival skills," I realize that all mom's are doing the same! So I am proud for my induction into this new sorority of motherhood, even if it comes with some pretty severe forms of hazing.
Happy Mother's Day to all mommies!!!!!!
