A part of us dies when we have a child. And we don’t mind at the time because the child becomes our world and fills the gap that was taken. And me becomes us and I is forgotten.

DOES IT GET EASIER?

When I had my first baby, I remember someone saying: “don’t worry, it gets easier.” I needed that at the time. Especially the day I accidently went out in my slippers and baby sick in my hair as I grappled with exhaustion juggling single parenting, two little ones under the age of 3 and work. … Continue reading DOES IT GET EASIER? →

Dear Daughter

You may be nail biting your way through your final few weeks of high school, scared and worried about what the future holds after graduation, but let me tell you a little secret.

The Terrible Teens

If we gave birth to teenagers who then regressed, I truly believe the human population would quite literally face extinction.
