Aside from "wash your hands," "Honesty is the best policy" is nearing the top of my Mommy nag list!

The past 13 months have been quite the learning curve ... from, "WOW, I didn't know my body could do that!" to learning the finer distinctions between brands of diapers & clothes, to being an expert daycare examiner.

It has been quite disappointing how people have masked the TRUE challenges of the early days of parenthood ... this I call the fine Print! I've never heard anyone paint a candid, honest, picture of how baby #1 will alter your universe! OR perhaps I was just not listing?!

Enter the first HONEST couple last night over dinner :: "We don't know WTF we are doing!" I was pleasantly surprised to hear a hilarious story of juggling working from home coordinating and the stresses of coordinating the mute button with a binkie!

Listen up new parents, this is uncharted territory for all involved ... why not call a spade a spade?
