Things Change and Stay the Same

Five things that I loved before I had children, that I don't love anymore:
1. Sleeping late
2. Scary movies
3. Buttery popcorn
4. Logo shirts
5. Road trips

Five things that I still love, even after having children:
1. Playing loud music in the car
2. Dessert
3. Inflatable slides
4. Good books
5. Hanging out with my husband

Five things that I love BECAUSE I have children:
1. The way a two-year-old says "delicious"
2. Family access public bathrooms
3. Dirty feet
4. The smell of grass, sunscreen and baby wash all mixed together
5. School plays

What a fun list. Thanks to this post, I have started thinking about my own list. Road trips alone with Ryan, so fun. With Grace, NOT fun. You taking a road trip to Iowa would be fun for me!! I am surprised you don't like sleeping late. Buttery popcorn, now why not that??

Amanda, I just feel like (now that I have five kids)I am too mature (read:old) to be wearing American Eagle logo shirts.
Amen to the AC, automatic doors and pony tails! :)

We won't talk about the kind of music you blare in the car now will we! I love spending time with you too, even if it is on a long road trip. that might be the only good part of it though. Great list and I love you.
