Before you have children you will believe all sorts of things about the kind of parent you will be.
Like, how you will never, ever let your kid watch television. Their days will be so filled with, like, wooden toys and The Guardian Weekly Junior and wholesome moments of togetherness; but then they’ll start to say ‘Gracias’ and Toucan with a Spanish inflection and you’ll be like, I love you, Dora. Thanks for babysitting my kids while I was on the internet.

Ha! Have you been peering into my mind somehow?! I was just telling friends this morning that I was never going to let my kids watch TV, but now my oldest (2.5yrs) can count to 10 in Spanish…
Hahahah! Oh, I don’t know whether to laugh, or hold my head in my hands and sob right now but… It’s so true! 😀
We’re all in this together, Sisters. Thanks for the comments.
