3. I had ten years to make sure that my husband will make a decent father and not leave me with a colicy baby to do shots at a local "Hooters."
4. I stopped wishing I could be a celebrity, model or a rich heiress and was happy just being healthy and loved.
5. By my thirties, everything that needed to be was out of my system.
6. I never wanted to be my daughter's "best girlfriend" Lindsay Lohan style.
7. I appreciate the miracle of having healthy turkey ball of a child so much more and therefore welcome the work that comes with it.
8. I will never be able to nag my daughter with "when I was your age.." because I will simply not remember.
9. Flirting with her future boyfriends would be over-the-top disgusting, especially since she will start dating at 30.
