Joys? of a single parent

We all know being a parent can be full of frustrations and luckily full of joys and experiences that out way those frustrations. When you're a single parent you get to shoulder more of those things by yourself; you often get to answer questions that you might be tempted to say "go ask your father." Most of these question seem to come while we are driving, I like that because I don't have to look them in the eye as I answer the question. The last few weeks however have not been so kind. A couple weeks ago it was "Mom, what is an erection?", last week it was "What is genital herpes?" Darn TV.
