When we choose to be parents, we accept another human being as part of ourselves, and a large part of our emotional selves will stay with that person as long as we live.
From that time on, there will be another person on this earth whose orbit around us will affect us as surely as the moon affects the tides, and affect us in some ways more deeply than anyone else can.
Our children are extensions of ourselves.

Beautiful thought, Mr. Rogers is still one of my heroes.
PS I did squats this morning and they ripped me up! My foot isn't quite healed enough for lunges, but the squats were great - thanks for all of the tips!
PPS My BFF found your blog from me and LOVES it! She told me to tell you that you're amazing and that she's jealous that I actually know you. ;)
Great quote! There is NOTHING like being a parent. I love it!
oh, what happened Brian O'Brien? :'(
Beautiful.
The quote, not poor Brian.
