I really love this piece on mothering. It’s the hardest job I’ve ever had. I thought it would be easier and I didn’t realize how much I’d have to figure out about myself while continually trying to help a new human grow. Thanks for your honesty and humor!💗

Yeah this resonates hard. Yesterday was not a stellar mothering day for me and I’m still reeling in my shame, even as (because) he’s forgiven me already, my yelling nothing new. Thanks for creating some space for that “I love YOU, I don’t love what it (i) puts me through.”
