first you get the exhausting stage (newborn)

then physical (toddlerdom and pre-school)

then emotional (first stages of school when they are trying to find their feet in the world )

then mentally challenging (teens........need I say more)

then financially exhausting&challenging.........older teens, young 20's.

I am currently in the emotional and mentally challenging stage, and GOD is it wearing!!!!

He doesn't, as it happens - he's very fit!! (and for that matter, neither do I, but there is a baby in there none the less and it's due to morph into a baby in August!!!)
