Parenthood. It’s the greatest promotion, and demotion, of our lives. We used to have an exciting life and wear cool clothes. Now we make patterns out of carrots and wipe up spills with our shirt.
Our lives have been destroyed, and replaced with something much, much better. We learn to enjoy our kids bringing us breakfast in bed, while knowing the destruction that awaits back in the kitchen. Sure, some of it can suck while it’s happening. But we enjoy the retelling so much we forget the pain, and it becomes another milestone in a wonderful journey.
Each day has its ups and downs. But on the days when our child is sick, everything seems to become that much harder. Coughs and fevers mean no one sleeps much. And when our child is tired and miserable, we are, too. That’s the time when we could use a little help. A way to help our kids feel better, breathe easier, and get some rest.
Triaminic. For parents with kids.
