[quote=Anonymous]There is a life-lesson in this stage of life and it is an important lesson for the mother to learn. The lesson is one of humbleness.  Life does not offer you as much control as you think you have.  If you have a good sleeper, an easy baby, a healthy child, a brilliant child, a good eater...it is luck and not something you did.  Yes, you have to have a plan and a vision for the future, but you also have to go with the flow.  Be in the moment, enjoy your babies because it will go incredibly fast and it will never return again.   Keep them well fed, clean and happy and reward yourself by immersing in their cuteness., their dependence on you, their baby smell, their littleness...and nothing much more then than.  Eventually, this phase will pass and you will be left with a hole in your heart because they will stop needing you and become their own persons.

After taking care of your kids, you take care of yourself...chores need to be outsourced or done when you get around to it.  [/quote]
