Parenting can go from "I love this" to "Why did this ever happen to me?" in less than three seconds. Though I can't speak from personal experience, many of my friends are parents and seem to have a button that switches between the two experiences throughout the day. My sister, who is dealing with a toddler, is a perfect example of how hectic life as a parent can be. And when I read various parenting tweets on the internet, I understand her experience more and more.

Although I'm not there every single day with my niece, when reading through the slew of parenting tweets, all I could say was "yup, this is real." Kids can totally light up your world, but they can also cause you to question if you have a multiple personality disorder, too. They'll make you laugh, cry, scream, and smile, but there's no denying the impact they have on your life. So, regardless of how crazy they may make you feel at times, one thing will never change: they warmness they make you feel when they come around you.

If you feel where I'm coming from, then this week's list of 23 tweets is definitely for you.
