this is where ive been August 20, 2013parentingbabies, lifescwtte They say babies are born with an innate desire to escape confined spaces. Theyre also born with the ability to generate absurdly loud, ear-piercing sounds, and to produce excrement approximately half their body weight (just like their father). I am now tasked with assisting in the raising of a delicate, nocturnal being with precarious control of her so-called voluntary muscle. And Ive loved her since before she was born, and wouldnt trade it for anything in this world.
