Top 10 Things I Love About The Baby Business
July 6, 2007
10. The tiny stuff. Everything is cuter in miniature.
9. The constant reminder that everyone starts out small, sweet, and innocent. It's not until we grow teeth that we get stuborn and grumpy.
8. I am able to observe parenting in action and see what works and doesn't work for other people. I am able to learn from my customers' mistakes.
7. The ability to relate. My child was little once, too.
6. I get a discount when I have to give baby gifts.
5. Job security. People are always going to have babies.
4. It is the happiest time in someone's life and I get to be a part of that!
3. I get to see my family every day.
2. The fact that I can get my maternal fix without the 2 am feedings.
1. Babies, of course! It never gets old seeing babies!
And now...

7. The ability to forget. I haven't had a baby in 8 1/2 years.
6. Everyone expects the biggest and best baby gifts from me.
5. We are condoning over-population. People are always going to have babies.
4. It is the happiest time in someone's life and if I mess it up, they're coming after me with a chainsaw!
3. I have to see my family every day.
2. It makes me want a baby, 2 am feedings and all.
