Top 10 Reasons I know I'm a real mom now..

10-I can't leave the house, not even a quick trip somewhere, without packing.
9-My nights are spent researching baby gates and making baby food.
8-I have a toy minefield in my front room.
7-I've had a booger on my arm and had no idea how long it had been there.
6-I've had a stream of poop run down my arm.
5-I've almost answered the door with one boob out.
4-It's more likely than not that I have breast milk, snot or some other bodily fluid on my shirt.
3-I can wipe boogers with my bare hands without getting grossed out.
2-I'm now a morning person.

I meant to read this a couple of times and then convinced myself I had read it--I hadn't. Thanks for the good laugh and close-up look into your life. Boogers, poop, and boobs: that's what life is about. Well, maybe I will just take the latter.

p.s. I meant (also) to call you last week but didn't. Wanted to touch base with you before you come out.
