Top 10 reasons for having kids!

Well most parents know that having kids is the toughest job, and perhaps sometimes miss their previous stress free life but and A big BUT, this is what having my precious baby taught me the last 4 months :

1/ To enjoy & cherish my 2 minutes morning cup of coffee even more than before. 

2/ To be creative trying to find ways to distract my baby when crying   

3/To Do lots of funny faces and sounds. Yes I became a comedian!!! 

4/ To be more easy going and handle stressful & embarrassing situations more lightly . 

5/To laugh a Lot. Especially At myself.

6/ To run all my errands with the baby hanging from my sling and with my messy hair ,no make up and sometimes with my PJs shuuuuu

7/ To forget about being ON Time no matter how hard I try. 

8/ To call my baby all the silly names that I promised I would NEVER do e.g. "Honey Bunny" "Sweet Cheeks" 

9/To accept having a mess around the house +pile of  dirty dishes+ loads of un done dirty laundry. 

Last but not least

10/ let's not forget the Top skill I've learned and should I say Mastered is of course "Singing". you  name it, and I can sing it loud and clear.
