parenting in a nutshell

The following is a conversation I had with my good friend, Stacey, recently:

Me: So we started Evvy on solids yesterday.
Stacey: That's exciting! What did you feed her?
Me: Rice cereal.
Stacey: I thought you weren't going to start with rice cereal.
Me: I know...I decided to.
Stacey: (laughing) Aren't you the one who said to me, 'Would YOU want to eat rice cereal?"
Me: Haven't you figured me out yet with this whole parenting thing? I think I know exactly how it should all go until it actually comes time to do it and then I realize I'm full of shit and just do whatever works...

Stacey laughs at me.

Me: And anyhow, she loved the rice cereal. So who cares if I wouldn't want to eat it. SHE certainly did.
