9 Things I Learned This Year

Here are 9 Big thing I learned this year....
what have you learned?

1. I can handle baby poop better then dog poop.
2. On every trip to the grocery store, it's okay to buy hot dogs, there can never be enough.
3. Those who don't have kids, will simply never understand, just accept it.
4. If I can make it down a river in a canoe with my sister, then I can do more then I realize.
5. Being married is the hardest thing I have ever done and will ever do in my lifetime.
6. Loosing weight, the 2nd hardest (this is something I've always known though.)
7. Always, always, always, double check the door to the deep freeze.
8. I can still play softball after all these years, wow.
9. I didn't realize how much it meant to me to see my mom and dad together in the same house until I didn't see it anymore. Then to see everything seperate, and each start over, dad in a new place, mom with new things. I've learned how valuable family is, all the little things that go with it, I know it's hard, it's very hard. I hope that Doug and I can always make it work, even when our kids are grown, because it would still be hard then too.
