Much of the stress comes from resisting and wanting to control and change what can't be controlled (namely everything outside of yourself).

I think that's why every parenting magazine has a humour column. The biggest pay off from parenting, a stressful job, is getting the laughs! You are so right!

Find something to laugh along with whether it is a hilarious book, magazine article, or rewind and play a scene from a film that sends you over the edge. Anything as long as it gets you laughing for about a minute or more. Then with a smile on your face and the body snatching attacker well and truly on its way, you can face the washing up, laundry or other chores with a smile on your face. You will be surprised how quickly the time will fly past then while you are doing the day to day things. Even laughing with your baby is extremely healing and aids the bond to grown stronger between you both. Helen Hi Kate
