"i will never. . . ."

Going into parenthood one will often say "I will never. . . (insert whatever preconceived notion you think you won't do as a parent)" and then when you become a parent you realize a lot of those "I will never. . ." statements actually make your life easier.

Here is one in action for me . . . "I will never let my kids watch TV in the car while I am just driving around town/running errands". Well, now that we have our MV with a DVD player I have completely and totally put my foot in my mouth. It makes my life soooo much easier when I have to run a bunch of errands. . .
