1. Replace the word bathroom with "potty" (even when I'm talking about myself)
2. Bribery ( if it takes a cookie for me to get through a shopping trip with Brooklynn, so be it!)
3. Use the bathroom (i.e "potty") as a hideout.
4. Have the ability to put on make up, get dressed, and do my hair with a little person attached to my leg (literally!)
5. Schedule my day around nap time
6. Cook 3 meals before realizing all she really wants for dinner is pbj and goldfish
7. Catch my self singing the theme song from Dora the Explorer
8. Allow my child to sit in the back of the shopping cart (again, if gets me through a shopping trip!!!)
9. Blame other kids for not being "toddler" enough to stand up for themselves against my child (yes Brookie can be an aggressive child, but other kids need to toughen up!!!)
10.Allow my car to become consumed with animal crackers crumbs, milk stains, and unidentifiable sticky stuff (we're going to work on that!)
11. Consider sleeping in until 10:00 a luxury
12. Fill my designer handbags with wipees, fruit snacks, and juice boxes
13. HAVE THE ABILITY TO LOVE SOMEONE BEYOND WHAT WORDS CAN EXPRESS!!!
