I Get It

It always bothered me when I'd show up to babysit and the house would be a mess, but now...I get it. 

I never understood why my mom started her Christmas shopping in October, but now...I get it. 

I used to scoff at women who would say "My baby wouldn't let me _______," but now...I get it. 

I never understood why women couldn't get back into shape after having a baby, but now...I get it. 

I used to judge women who drank a lot of caffeine, forgot to eat lunch, ate crap, etc, but now...I get it. 

I didn't understand why parents would get babysitters on weeknights instead of spending time with their kids, but now... I get it.  

What else? This list could go on and on and on.

What else can I say but...I get it.
