I've learned a few things in my eight and a half years of parenting. For example...
- Don't leave permanent markers anywhere within reach. (And by "within reach" I mean able to be reached with a chair, a pile of blocks and tip-toes.)
- Don't let juice boxes, and especially kids with juice boxes, anywhere near your computer.
- Don't think that giving your kid a big pile of stickers to make a car ride easier is actually going to make your life easier. You definitely won't think so when you're still scraping stickers off the mini-van windows years later.
- And then, of course, there's the totally obvious parenting rule: Never, ever buy character Band-Aids. Because you know what? If your kid is hurt, a flesh colored Band-Aid and a kiss will do just fine. And the character ones? Will be gone.
Look at me Mom!
