Parent to parent

Being a mother has given me a whole new understanding of and sympathy with my parents.. no wonder they sometimes act like they own me - they used to! All those years of repetitive, intimate care that they gave me, thousands of diapers and feedings, rocking, playing, singing.. and I remember none of it! It all has to be done with care and love for the kid to turn out okay, but then we ingrates don't even remember it!
