I re-read this post from some time ago and was reminded that parenting is difficult, BUT it has been the MOST REWARDING thing I have "done". Whether you are a parent or not, what do you think?
Parenting is the most difficult and rewarding "job"in the world - BAR NONE! It consists of hours and days of laundry, dishes, cooking, and many other mundane tasks not generally thought about when one considers becoming a parent. All these issues considered, I would not change becoming a parent, and a foster parent! The rewards are indescribable and at times very, very funny! One such incident happened the other day when I took our two foster children to the doctor. He showed each of them a few pictures and asked what the horse, cow, and several other animals say. The answers were as expected except for one. When he asked the youngest what a man says, the three year old responded, "What's up Dog?" I almost fell over I laughed so much. This is one precious moment that I will remember for a long time! These moments in part make all the effort and laundry and dishes, etc worthwhile! Share a precious moment or event that you experienced and let's all laugh and celebrate the gift of parenthood together!
