Loving Parenthood

I recently stumbled upon this commercial for the 2011 Toyota Sienna. While I'm not about to buy a minivan soon, it made me laugh out loud. 





It definitely reminds me of how my life has evolved over the past few years. I was never a partier, but I did do my fair share of bar-hopping and clubbing when I lived in NYC. I dined out often, favoring quiet, cozy restaurants. I enjoyed traveling overseas and vowed to travel internationally at least once a year.

And then EB came into our lives. Instead of going to wine bars and dance clubs, we go to playgrounds and play dates. We are now regulars of Chic-fil-A. Our international travels have been replaced by visits to Branson, MO and other local, kid-friendly attractions.

And you know what? I’ve loved every minute. Would not trade this in for anything else.
