Motherhood.
It changes you. It teaches you. Lessons that you expect to learn, such as how to put on a nappy. The exact way your baby likes to be rocked to sleep. That it is possible to love each child the same, that your heart grows a little bit more each time to encompass that love.
Motherhood teaches you many, many more things.
Less expected things. Things that, though they seem irrelevant, are actually very important.
Ten Important Motherhood Lessons
1. Baby wipes are the best invention ever, from baby bums to make up removal to toilet cleaning their uses are never ending.
2. Poo can, and does, provide a variety of conversational topics from colour and consistency, to what we find in it, to frequency of going. Both you and the baby.
3. How to drink a cup of hot tea in less than 30 seconds without scalding your mouth (well not too much anyway). Failing that the optimal number of times a cup of tea can be microwaved is three. Anymore and don’t bother. Time to chuck it away and start again.
