What I want to talk about:
I live with 2 non-stop talkers (my husband and oldest child) and one that looks like she will be too (my baby). They don't let me get a word in. Here is what I want to talk about.

The great parts of being a parent
One of the most rewarding and frustrating jobs a person can have is as a parent. I have two children and over the weekend my 15 month old made me glad to be a mom. She has been sick for nearly two weeks. She finally started feeling better over the weekend. So, I decided to let her participate in what she believes is the funnest thing on the planet. I gave her a bath. She was in a bedroom with her sister when I started the bath. She must have heard the water because I heard the biggest happiest squeal and a few seconds later she was crawling into the bathroom (she can walk she just crawls faster). I got her undressed and put her in the water. She kicked her little legs, beat the water with her little hands, and laughed to bring down the house. I couldn't help but laugh along with her. After I got her out I realized that I was just as wet (along with the bathroom) as she was. Giving my baby a bath is one of the greatest joys of my being a mom.
Do any of you parents out there have fun stories to share about your kids? 2 comments from 2 users

Wait till you get to be a grandparent. I missed so much with my daughter because of my youth and big hurry. Now with the grand daughter .... I will stand on my head and spit wooden nickles to get that fantastic laugh. Like you said - pure, undiluted joy. She too loves her bath - so at gramma's house, she gets one every single day. We actually look for play activities that get us dirty enough so we can get that water and soap out. Too fun ....
