  • I suppose it was successful, then.. it's nice when changes work properly... :)

    I wish one of my kids would make me a grandpa. Oh well...

    Those 3:00 AM feedings and diaper changes are hell if you have an alarm clock.

    Take all the sleep you can get, you won't get much for the next two or three years. But you get the greatest experience you can be given on this planet - witnessing a human being growing up. I am witnessing three of those, aged 7, 4 and 2, so you're a bit behind. ;)
