Thinking of starting your own family?
Here are five other things I wish I knew before I had kids:
1. The Terrible Twos start well before 2 and last until after puberty.
2. You will never again have the chance to casually watch CNN in the morning with the newspaper and coffee.
3. Instead, most of your television viewing will include “Nemo,” “Little Einsteins” and some creepy dinosaur named Barney.
4. Regardless of how much you work out, your body will never be the same.
5. No matter how many parenting books you read, you still won’t know what you are doing. Ever.
