Notas del episodio
Somewhere between serving separate dinners, calling my soda "spicy," surviving endless renditions of Let It Go, and catching vomit with my bare hands...I became that mom.
This week's episode was recorded after nearly three hours of bedtime negotiations with my very chatty toddler, so welcome to the sleepy edition of Drafting Motherhood.
Today I'm sharing the things I swore I'd never do as a parent...until I actually became one. From tablets on road trips and cake pop bribes to grocery store meltdowns and girls' trips without the kids, we're laughing at all the ways motherhood humbles us while reminding ourselves that perfection simply isn’t achievable.
Because it turns out the best parents aren't the ones who stick to every ideal they had before kids. They're the ones who learn, adapt, apologize when needed, and keep showing up for their kiddos.
So grab your reheated coffee, fold that mountain of laundry (or don't), and let's laugh about the expectations we left behind.
Good night, friends. Thanks for listening. Let's keep talking.
