God woke me up meme
When people ask me why didn't I had a second child, I always say: "Look at my daughter. He wants to keep you close to him, so close that you talk with him and depend on him all through your day, every day. God loves you so much he takes a constant, personal interest in your life. It reminds you of what really matters in life. Since newborn she always slept at least 6hours straight, is rarely sick, eats everything we put on her front, likes fish and salad/vegetables, I can count with one hand her child tantrums and she made only 2 in public (now at 14y we have arguments often, but are usually negociated, some days she ends upset but accepts my demands, others I have to give up some minor rules and trust her jugdement), is a great student, well behaved, helps random people she sees in need, and receives appraisal from her teachers and people around. A wake-up call forces you to rethink your priorities.
I love my daughter, she is, under a general view, a perfect child. I'm a lucky momma, but I completely understand people who don't want children, and that must be respected! I'm afraid a second may come as "standard" or worst, and I'll regret my decision hundreds of times." Since newborn she always slept at least 6hours straight, is rarely sick, eats everything we put on her front, likes fish and salad/vegetables, I can count with one hand her child tantrums and she made only 2 in public (now at 14y we have arguments often, but are usually negociated, some days she ends upset but accepts my demands, others I have to give up some minor rules and trust her jugdement), is a great student, well behaved, helps random people she sees in need, and receives appraisal from her teachers and people around. A friend of mine says: "Children are the best and the worst we have in our lives."
