Becoming a mother is a life changing experience. Suddenly a whole new world opens up to you. You begin to speak in a whole new language and you learn the GREAT SECRET.
The GREAT SECRET is revealed to you though experience. No one draws you aside and whispers it in your ear. You are a mother for three days and you know it, you LEARN it!
For those people who have not had a baby and would like to know this secret (and feel that having a baby to discover it is a bit overenthusiastic) I will share it with you.
An ordinary person thinks that these are just for cleaning a baby's bottom. The fools! The great secret of motherhood is that baby wipes are amazing. Their uses are manifold. They can clean stains from almost anything...they can eliminate smelly stains for anything...they can clean make up off in one wipe...they can remove marker from interactive whiteboards. That is why mothers continue to have them in their handbags long after their babies are out of nappies. Baby wipes can cause any stain* to vanish.
This causes me to ponder...isn't God a bit like an everlasting supply of baby wipes?
* I have not tried to remove any and every stain with baby wipes and so please do not sue me if they don't work on that 3 year old red wine stain on your cream suede coat....but I would be pretty sure that if you had the wipes in your bag and used them within 5 minutes of the spilling incident the results would be impressive.
