Why We're Having Nyquil for Dinner
My mom is in town, and she brought Ryan, my 9 year old nephew who's a lot more needy for attention than I remembered. I thought kids were supposed to be able to entertain themselves for hours with an Xbox and an endless supply of chocolate milk and Doritos.
I hope my inability to be patient with him isn't an indication of what kind of parent I'm going to be because I'm about to hang him from a door hook by his underwear and just leave the house. Geezis.

I know people always say this, but it's true: it is different when it's your own.
Not that he/she won't drive you absolutely insane at times, but you will overlook it more - especially when you go in and watch them sleep. You forget how irritating they can be and just watch them breathe.

Plus, yours won't be 9 when he gets here, so you'll have "blocking it out" down by then.
