Signs you are a parent

As I was driving to work today I had something happen that made me say, "Yet another sign I'm a parent". During the rest of my commute I thought of a few more and I thought, heck...why not make this a new feature?

> You don't have time for breakfast so you find an old Fruit Roll-Up in your van and decide to count it as your one fruit serving for the day.

> Your purse contains more items for your children than for yourself.

> You know the limitless number of uses for the common baby wipe.

> You cut yourself and realize the only band-aids you have in the house are either Dora the Explorer or Backyardigans.

> You have a 300 count bag of baby wipes in your vehilce at all times.

> Having your child play with finger paint causes more anxiety than when they play with scissors.

> While running out the door you realize you have some baby puke on your shoulder and instead of running upstairs and changing your shirt you decide that it's not worth the effort and remember you've got baby wipes in the car that just might work.

> When you walk into the grocery store and realize the race car shopping cart is already being used and you are just as disappointed as the kids. ;-(

> When you'd give up anything (i.e. a promotion, large amounts of money, a clean house, a sleep filled night) for the happiness and health of your kids.
