My husband asked my kids to say why I’m a good mom and my 2yo said “you go down the slide” and honestly that might be the nicest thing anyone’s ever said about me. I do go down the slide. 😭

I relate to Reba because in the show she’s like “I’m a single mom who works too hard” but then her actual job is a part time dental office receptionist and she isn’t even good at it.

Every Mother’s Day there are posts that are like “Remember: all people are moms. This days for everyone. It’s not just for moms of human children. Fathers are moms. Moms of plants count, too. Aunts of golden retrievers are also moms. If you’ve ever owned a Beanie Baby you are a mom. Moms are anyone”

Went to a historic town from the 1700s with my family, while we were walking around my husband pointed out a flower to my kids and my 2yo goes “yes and there’s a ghost!” And I was like “what? There’s a ghost?” thinking I’d misheard. And she goes “yes! A ghost! Right there!” And pointed at nothing??

Everyone loves to tell new parents "you'll miss these days." Today for @mcsweeneys.net I talk this over with Marty McFly's mom and decide if, given a DeLorean, I'd go back in time to relive my kids' baby years. www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/a-l...

As a white mom I truly never even know the stuff I don’t have to think about that other moms do and I’m so glad @shanders.bsky.social is able to explain it so beautifully

I don’t agree with EVERYTHING in this piece bc unfortunately I am sometimes the parent playing at the park with my kids (I’m sorry!!! I like swinging!!!! Sue me!!!) but @sarahradz.bsky.social makes such a good point about letting go and letting your kids play, they don’t always need you!
