We became pregnant like 20 seconds after getting home from the hospital (Pro tip: Don’t do that), and within 11 months of becoming first-time parents, we were second-time parents. It was a complete blur. It wasn’t until 5 months after Jett was born that I had a chance to sit down and organize my thoughts on this whole parenting thing, and as it turned out, there was some stuff I really didn’t enjoy.

Now I bet a sound like a complete freak but when your kids have outgrown the need for cuddles and bedtime stories have been read aloud apps on tablets etc your pet suddenly feels like the only thing who still has time for you…..that is until they invent iPads for animals then we may as well just give up!
This says it all really!!
This is one of my older poems but still says so much, we all go through life pretending to be something we are not due to the expectations of others.
