What did you discover about yourself when you became a parent?

Being a parent I have realized how wonderful life can be when you are a parent. I have become much more sensitive, emotional and empathetic. I now try to remember every word and advice that my parents used to tell me when I was young and how true they were. I value them even more. When I see my child it's like living my childhood again. Sometimes I might get too anxious, worried or tired but at the end of the day I know that everything is going to be just fine.
