Two odd thoughts

Monday, October 19, 2009

1. Its so strange and so wonderful to not have postpartum depression. It was so bad with my daughter. I was so out of it for so long. I felt like I couldn't enjoy or even really experience anything for months. It was like trying to live after a bomb blast.

But, today was my first day back to work and I had fun. It was truly enjoyable. Then, when I got home, my baby had a little tear on his face from crying, but he looked at me and grinned and I was so happy to see him. Living life and enjoying it is wonderful. I feel great.

Somehow, that feels strange to me. I was so convinced that I would have horrible postpartum depression. I planned for postpartum depression. Not having it feels wierd.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not asking for it.

2. My two-year-old daughter now has a credit card.

So, we wanted to get the nanny a credit card so she could take the kids to the zoo, aquarium, etc. But, the way these things work baffles me. To get her an actual prepaid credit card would cost us extra and have strange limitations. The bank did, however, have this program for your kids to get a prepaid credit card to help them learn to manage their finances.

So, it made more financial sense for us to get our two-year-old a credit card.

It just seems really strange to me to have our two-year-old daughter treat the nanny to the zoo and other things. Does this make my daughter a sugar baby?
