But there are plenty of great things about being a parent. It’s not just the deep sense of love and affection that exists between a parent and child (though that’s pretty fantastic).There are lots of unexpected perks that will make you love being a mom even more.

Kids are famous for eating snacks constantly and never finishing the food you order for them. When my burger has already taken the trip into my gullet and I’m still feeling a bit peckish, there’s bound to be a rejected chicken nugget or two nearby.
2. When I really don’t want to go to that party.

Even though you were all for it at the time, now that the day for your co-worker’s BBQ has finally arrived, you just don’t feel like packing up the family and going. Saying your child isn’t feeling well is the perfect excuse that lets you stay home without hurting the host’s feelings.
3. When they fall asleep on me.
