4. It doesn't get any easier, just better
5. You learn to live without sleep and still love your children at 4am
6. It IS possible to lose count of the dirty diapers you've changed in a day
7. Permanent markers are still visible on white walls even through 4 coats of paint

12. They each have a special "quick, mom's not looking" toy
13. They always wake up earlier than normal on days when you can sleep in
14. They learn at a very early age which parent to ask for permission
15. You love them from the instant they're yours
16. Boys can love princesses too
17. All boys love light sabers and once exposed, any straight object over 2 inches long becomes a light saber
