Being a parent is a wonderful gift. The hugs and kisses and cuddles are beyond amazing. There is another side to it though. Feeling frustrated when they don't clean up their rooms as asked. Feeling like there aren't enough hours in the day to get to kung fu, riding lessons, piano, violin, laundry, supper, schoolwork, housework. It's an overwhelming job. It's the best job though. All the hours of cleaning, washing, and driving are worth it for the sweet, sweet snuggles of a child.
