Quotes and wishes: «Raising children»
Do all the same things
When I had my first child I thought, ‘This is the best-kept secret.’ You know how parents rattle on to you about, ‘Oh, you won’t believe your life will never be the same,’ and da, da, da and you think, ‘Why can’t these people just get over it? All they’re doing is yakking on about their kids. It’s such a bore.’ And then you have kids and you just want to do all the same things.

Wise answer
I remember being seven and asking my mom if I was as pretty as Monique [my best friend in grade school].
