Things I Didn't Know 1.0

There are many things that I am learning, and since I haven't been very good a keeping a journal the last few (many!!) years, I am going to keep a few more thoughts here for posterity, not in order of importance, but as I think of them...

1) That I could fall in love so quickly with someone I barely "knew"

2) That I could love (and like!!) someone so much who kept me from getting 7 hours of sleep

3) That newborns (7-10 days old+) might only poop once every 3-4+ days!!

4) That being up in the middle of the night nursing would feed my soul in a way I never expected

5) That a little baby could wet so many diapers (80+ a week!!)

6) That cloth diapers are as easy as they are to use

7) That getting Brennan to fall asleep makes me feel like I am doing a good job, and brings me so much satisfaction

8) That HIS cry never grates on my nerves, and I can feel so much compassion for the little guy when he is upset

9) That sometimes I miss him and look at his pictures when he is asleep in the next room

10) That so many people in our lives are so touched by and interested in him

11) That he could make me laugh at such a young age

12) How loud motorcycles are

That's it for now...

Please, add the things you learned along the way in the "comments"

That you could love someone so much that you don't think its possible for that love to get any bigger, but then it does, over and over again.

xo to you all... Shari

That someone this young can be so wise and that he can make you laugh constantly.

Also, that the love for him can make you give up not only sleeping but carrier, your entire old life and you don't feel that bad about it...
