I can't wait to....

This morning I was thinking about all the things I want to do with a child or things I can’t wait to be a part of as a parent. Individuals do not realize that people who are struggling to have children are craving the opportunity to do the things people with children get to do everyday. There have been times where I see facebook statuses that make me slightly envious. They are not the one you would think about either. I found myself thinking that I would love to be packing chairs up to go sit at the t-ball field in the boiling hot sun! So I thought I would make a list of some things we can’t wait to do. My husband gave some surprising input as well. He had several good things. It made me smile.

(in no particular order!)

ride bikes together

go to t-ball practice/soccer/ballet/gymnastics, whichever they choose

watch the excitement as we decorate for Christmas

getting no sleep from putting together the toys from Santa

holiday pictures

choosing a Halloween costume

tooth fairy magic

bath time

rocking a snugly baby to sleep

going to school events

changing a diaper (from the husband since he said he would finally have his own, my weak stomach has to get prepared!)

attending children’s birthday parties with our little one

family vacations

reading books together

hearing sweet prayers before bedtime

bragging

having people say, “Oh and its good to see you too!” as they have grabbed the child out of your arms

The feeling of missing them so bad that you can’t wait to get back home.

Doggy kisses (poor Scooter and Charlie)

Blowing out candles

Playing in the dirt

Jumping in mud puddles

Not having any money because I spent it all on some adorable clothes.

Playing board games

Pulling a wagon

Swinging on the playground

Cooking together                 

Teaching my child to count/ABCs/manners

......and more!
