It’s no secret‚ life is chaotic. It begins as a child‚ though I doubt you begin to notice until much later. In fact the very second you were born it had already begun. Mom and Dad did as much as they could to help you adjust‚ but the warm world you had lived in would never be the same. You messed your diaper‚ you rolled off the bed‚ and you collapsed in earsplitting tomato faced hysterics for no reason. You couldn’t even get food from the table to your cute little mouth for quite some time. Then
