I am looking forward to:
-The chance that she'll join the Girl Scouts. A direct cookie connection! On the other hand, having boxes stacked in the house might not be a good thing...
-Reading to her. We already do it a little, and I'm sure I'll need some hard candy to keep my throat from drying out, but Miss Mox and I will read to her a lot. Hopefully she is as into reading as we are.
-Her being potty trained. I know it is a couple of years away, but it can't come soon enough. And that's before I've had to deal with diapers...
-Taking her to try strange and interesting food. Miss Mox will bail, but I love trying new things and hope Lychee wants to join me.
-Figuring out her interests. We will provide as many experiences as we can, and help her figure out what she likes. Sports? Music? History? Cooking? All of the above and more?
Not looking forward to
-Diapers and puke.
-Not being able to keep up with her. My back and my stamina are not kidlike.
-Her dating. At all. Boys or girls, nice or not, it will be a challenge for us and her suitors.
I think you will do just fine... there won't be anything that you won't do or try when it comes to the well being of baby K. Cherish her, love her, show her how she deserves to be treated. By the time WE say she can date you will look back and think the poop and puke was not that bad.. Relax you got this!
