I have changed so much since I had children and I really have learned that it's exhausting to be anal retentive. It is funny, actually.

(laughs) Like you, I continue to tell myself how much this has enhanced the whole Life 101 experience. But sometimes I wonder how I signed up for this elective.

The only thing I miss from my pre-child days is sleep. And, being alone and cute and nicely dressed and clean and able to wear white and sit quietly anywhere and not having to share the bathroom, my plate, and my bed with someone small. Okay. So maybe I miss a lot. But so much has been gained. That's what I keep telling myself anyway. Are they Angelina’s? The only thing I miss from my pre-child days is sleep.

Definitely I've experienced more in this life because I have kids, but I have to be honest. I do remember life before kids. I hear so many parents say, "I can't remember what life was like before kids." Well I remember. Thanks Katherine!

I can relate SO much. Yup, I was a person way back before kids... I had a clean,non-smelly apartment with no sunflower seeds in the cushions. (that would be my middle kid) I never had to worry about someone else's grades (that would be my oldest son) and I certainly didn't have to hear high pitched whinging whenever someone got bored. (That would be my younger daughter) BUT.... I also didn't get to snuggle with the sweetest little red haired girl in the world, I didn't get to laugh hysterically with an unbelievably crazy blond teenager and I didn't get to try standing on the surf board with my oldest son teaching me. Yup, I wouldn't trade it, that is for sure! What an awesome post… I can relate SO much.

That's crazy, man! I'm going to have to paste in one of my Converse low tops to see what comes up. I draw the line at re-wearing used underwear. No chance. Booyah!
