The most important thing that happened in my life in the last couple of weeks was Danil’s birth. He is nice and with bulky cheeks, appeared with a weight of 3.15 kilo and a height of 51 centimeters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Before our first child, I thought that kids are just noisy and very energetic creatures and I was prepared for worse. But it turned out that they are much more. Children are the greatest teachers that I ever saw in my life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
They teach us compassion and empathy. It’s the only way to understand what they want during the first year and meet their needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They teach us humility. The only way to survive the series of sleepless nights is to accept your burden with calm and tranquility <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They teach us self-control. Otherwise, you would fail explaining simple things several hundred times or reading the same stupid book every night trice for three months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They make you better. I’m not using swear words, because children catch them instantly, in contrast to the alphabet. I’m eating better because you can’t tell how wonderful veggies are and drink beer with smoky bacon at the same time. I’m saving more because I have little chance to go out with my wife and spend some money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With a second child, it’s a little bit easy. We already have all those tiny scissors, a small tube for bathing and a lot of useful stuff. We also have much more confidence and we know how to swaddle at night without light in half a minute. But we still have to wake up every couple hour and there is no way to get used to it even on th second child.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
