Dear everyone in the world who became a parent before me,
I just want to say that I’m sorry.
I’m sorry that I thought you were all hypochondriacs.
I’m sorry that I secretly suspected you were getting sick all the time largely because you let yourself get run down and out of shape when you had kids. I’m sorry that I smugly assumed that good eating habits and regular exercise would somehow grant me immunity from my child/ walking germ factory, who I now know is but a foot soldier in an international army bent on biological warfare.
I'm an idiot.
And if it makes you feel any better, I’m an idiot who has been sharing the same cold with my husband for nearly two weeks now.
Consider my ass well and truly kicked.
Sincerely,
Don Mills Diva
