SuperSense


There is sight, hearing, feeling, smelling, and tasting.  There is also what people call the sixth sense of using more than 10% of our brain.  I would like to propose a unique sense that parents develop called SuperSense.  I was talking about it with a fellow mom, it was amazing how she could hear things that I couldn't hear in her home while I was teaching her Pilates.  She heard footsteps outside, when her baby would shuffle, and something her almost three daughter was saying outside.  Then I realized at my home with my kids, I also know exactly when I am needed, hear things and catch them before they get worse, and as I usually suggest, trust my gut and SuperSense completely.

For example, I am very proud that my baby is waking up at night to go to the bathroom, he is recently trained, and has had a few number one accidents in his bed.  So I automatically wake up, even if I am in a deep sleep, help his brain register why he woke up, after he goes, I stay with him until he falls asleep.  He used to want to always come to our bed, but now he asks to go to his bed, YAY.  While I was laying with him I hear my girl climb out of her bed and go to the bathroom, it was already 6am, believe it or not sometimes their waking time, between six and seven in the morning.  I quietly rolled out of my baby's bed and glanced in, and realized she was out of toilet paper.  Before she opened her mouth to ask and peeked out at me, I already had the toilet paper in hand.

Parents are Super Heroes,
We Rock,
We do so much,
We deserve to be proud of ourselves,
Thank God we are all feeling better,
Stay warm everyone, cold temperatures coming even to La La Land,
Coach Yulia
