It’s the odd sock of our generation. You are looking for a little relief, and it’s in the form of a round, shiny object. Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, but for a woman… a mom… needing a moment of peace, it’s a DVD.
Right?
Why knock yourself out during the holidays when your three-year-old doesn’t remember a thing from last year? Gosh, I wish I thought to wrap up last year’s presents.
There is a lot of sisterhood in motherhood, but there are also a lot of bitches (dudes can be bitches).
You know you’ve had something like this happen when some parent tries to act all superior about their kid. I bet that kid also never screamed in the car either, right.
From time to time, it’s good to hear from a mother wiser than myself – my mom!
My mom, Morency, not only raised three girls but has run her own small private school for close to 30 years. She deals with kids who would otherwise fall through the cracks, so I think she has a lot of insight. Since I am a step mom, I wanted to ask her about the step parents she has known through the years.
Anyone who has had that job knows it can be a little dicey to navigate. And I am lucky. I never had the ABC Afterschool Special moment I thought I would have, a step child running down the hall, screaming, “Leave me alone, you aren’t my mother!” as they slam the door to their room.
