I Might Be Better

I’d probably be better at raising a daughter who loves her own body if I was 10 pounds thinner. Or if I could get Kybella, that injection that dissolves double chins.   Now that I’m a mom, though, I’m not saying these things in front of my daughter.

They Won’t Sleep In Your Bed Forever

Car Ride Conversations

I drive my kids to and from school in another town, so we have eighteen full minutes in the car each way. Eighteen minutes where I have them all to myself and they can’t walk away. This is when we have our talks. … Read More Car Ride Conversations

My Emptying Nest

I’ve heard about the empty nest. That time in your parenting journey when you have your home to yourself. Your children are off, flying on their own, living their lives and you and maybe your partner can pat yourselves on the backs, toast your children’s successes, enjoy the freedom.
