You need to retrain yourself.
Bathtime? It's not a chore. Ever have one of those barbie dress up heads? You know, the ones you can blowdry, style, cut and brush the hair? Yep... you have a live one now.
Mealtimes? No problem. Now you have someone to have dinner with EVERY night.
Bedtime? (wait until after potty trained!), you have someone to cuddle with.
Errands to run? Cool beans. You have someone to talk to while you're driving. Trust me, he'll understand when you explode at the guy who cuts you off.
Companionship? yep yep! I love having someone to talk to that doesn't point out my flaws an argue with me. With my girls, I'm always right, no matter how ridiculous it sounds to humans. LOVE that! |
I haven't read the whole thread, but this is the most awesome post I've ever read. I was overwhelmed too, but it didn't hit me so soon. I had a checklist o things that needed to be done when Kaji got home. I went through it, and when I was done, that's when it hit me. But Deadbug is right, it's just so awesome to have a buddy.
