Education

Things I never knew until I became a Mother:

1. The on/off nozzle on the cleaner sprays really is useful!
2. Check all the appliances before plugging them in to make sure they are "off".
(Especially the blender)
3. Your feet become invisible when hiding behind the kitchen curtains.
4. You can get your house looking halfway decent during naptime.
5. That is the ONLY time it will look decent.
6. When your house is peacefully quiet for more than 2 minutes something is not right.
7. Suprisingly MANY MANY objects fit into the VCR slot
8. Toilet training a child is much like toilet training a dog... Thank goodness for wood floors!
9. Not even oxyclean will clean all the fruit-punch off your white shag rug!
10. Your indoor plants don't like your children's vegetables either.

When you become a mom you resign yourself to long sleepless nights, cold dinners, spit-up on wardrobes, warm kisses and delicious little giggles. Being a mother is a job... no wait a career. I never realized that until I became one, but the pay is the best I've recieved in any job.
