Parenting is such a job.
It is the only job in the world that is 100% challenging but 200% rewarding.
The love, sweat, time and effort put into bringing up a child are insurmountable. But all you need is for your child to smile at you, come to you and give you a hug, call "mama" or simply following you around, you know, your efforts have produced results.
Your child loves you back. It is just that simple.Your child is growing day by day.
Looking back to the initial days when Isaac was born, it often brought such sweet memories, I felt moved.
Parenting is a job where you put in so much effort but you ask for little back in return.
It is also one of the rare jobs where your boss is demanding, difficult and may be somewhat tyrant. Yet, you will continue to serve him whole heartedly and love him deeply.
It is one job where you don't get much tangible benefits yet, you are happiest doing it.
I love my son. Everytime I watch him sleep or sing to him at bedtime, I am in awe at how much he has grown.
This is also my best job, ever.
