Top ten reasons being a completely single parent is actually pretty awesome....

1. There is nobody to rationalize your parenting style with.
2. You are ALWAYS the one they want first.
3. When they are sick enough to need to stay home, you are forced to take a day off from life and stay home "sick" with them (and we all know they are extra snuggly when they are sick).
4. You get to do both the Mommy and the Daddy stuff, which if you are a tomboy like me, is pretty freakin awesome.
5. You get to dress them however you want with no repercussions from your significant other (this includes matching outfits!)
6. You always have a date on a Saturday night.
7. You get to decide what music and shows are played in your house.
8. You always get to read them their goodnight story.
9. You don't have to fight over the remote (until, perhaps, many years into your parenting journey).
10. You never have to worry if your child knows you love them, because if you are doing your job to the best of your ability, they will eventually see that everything you do is for them.
