The First Time

When it comes to parenting, there are a lot of firsts. Some good, some strange, some wonderful, some not so good. Some pretty bad. In fact, firsts almost become something of a routine. If you really tracked them, you’d find them occurring on a regular basis, possibly even every day. Some you’re able to capture on film for posterity, others are so spontaneous you just have to commit them to memory and hope they don’t get mixed up with all the others.

Some you wish to simply forget altogether.

We just had one of those. One night this week, for the first time ever, the scene at our house with the Doozer was something like this.



Yes. Parenting is awesome.
