There are so many ritualistic things I used to dismiss like Christmas gifts or trees or decorations etc bc cbf and unnecessary/meaningless to me but BUT now I have a bub I guess it’s different now. Like I have to care about these things for his sake - for his joy and wonder etc?

When bb naps <50min: life is hell. I am a failure. All I feel is despair. He has to go to daycare
When bb naps >1 hr: life is great. He is a doll. I feel rested and rejuvenated and it’s all good again. How could I entertain the thought of him at daycare
