Raising Kids – It’s Their Turn Now

During each of my pregnancies, I took vitamins. Since it’s been so long ago, the last one being over 17 years ago, I don’t remember if they were the same brand, but it sure seems like it. I remember pink. I just don’t remember what was pink. The bottle, the pills, or both. I didn’t and still don’t find it enjoyable to take pills. Especially horse pills. You know what I mean. The huge pills that go down your throat hard and slow?

I don’t know if I was taking what would be considered the best prenatal multivitamin on the market and to tell you the truth, I don’t even remember feeling any differently than before I took them. But I believe they are healthy for both mother and baby, so, I took them, which I recommend any expectant mother to do. I was even told to continue taking them after my children were born until I ran out of the last bottle I received.

.~Sigh~ I love my kids so much, but I’m so glad thost days are over for me. I see my son and his wife raising my granddaughter and while I love her dearly and sometimes I miss my kids when they were little, I wouldn’t want those days back. Well, maybe some of them. Not the crying and screaming days though. Not the sleepless nights and too early in the morning times either.

It’s their turn now. And it’s fun to watch. Watching my granddaughter learn and grow and watching my son experience what I did and see what he does differently than what I did. And better.
