learning to be empathetic

last night we had our last parenting class. while we learned a lot, i'm not sure that we still feel completely prepared for parenthood...and honestly, i don't know that we ever will. some things you just learn as you go, i suppose. :) ryan, along with all of the other pappies, did get to wear the empathy belly last night for all of about 30 seconds. though he has been nothing but kind throughout this pregnancy, there was still something wonderful about seeing him bogged down with a belly similar to mine. granted what he was wearing only weighed about half of what i'm carrying around these days, but oh well. it made for a good laugh!!

i think being able to see my husband in that when i was prego gave me a little relief even though it doesn't compare to what we carry. He looks great with it on.LOL. I truly believe the classes help a lot but that you are never prepared for parenthood. Love you all!!
