This is a book about parenting. The book is written in a tongue in cheek manner to show the lighter side of what parenting entails. Having become a parent a few years ago I noticed that the parenting books tend to romanticise the truth. In writing this book I hope to remove some of that romanticism from people's idea of what it is to be a parent. The reader will come away with a better idea of what to expect from the beautiful experience that is parenting. There are fifteen chapters starting at conception and taking the reader through the first few years of being a parent. The book revolves around my own experiences from becoming a parent right through to living in a house with a three and a half and a one year old. By sharing my experiences I am hoping to illustrate just how vastly our lives change when we become parents. The fifteen chapters cover a range of subject matter from the normal; pregnancy, birth and eating, to the more unusual things such as; the games they play, the things they say, face plants and more. My book will make people laugh and help struggling parents realise that they are not alone in the craziness that pervades their everyday realities. Every parent from young to old and couples planning to have children will garner great enjoyment from reading about my experiences. I would even suggest letting teenagers read it so that they are aware of why contraception is so important. The book ends off by helping parents see that the best we can give our children is just to try our best each and every day. Parenting really is a most beautiful experience but that does not mean that it is not filled with pitfalls along the way. My book helps people see that those pitfalls are just as beautiful in their own right.
