My cousin, KS, is a first time mother. Her sister, RR, came for a visit not too long ago. KS took the time for a shower.

When she came back she was very excited. “Thank you! Thank you! I got to shave both legs at the same time!”

Then there was this one from S: we were at my Grandma’s and S’s hair was the topic of conversation. Grandma was telling S how lucky she was to have curls in her hair. Mom added “And blond to boot.”

S replyed “I don’t have boobs.”

Or maybe the time I was asked by S to put her socks on. I told her they wouldn’t fit me.

“Not on you… You’re too fat”

Yep… You are a parent too.
