First Post

This is not one of those parenting blogs where you will find long-form think pieces iterating a philosophical stance on raising children, or explaining the correct sharing rules to teach your child or even take up a position in attachment-parenting, share quinoa recipes or give you tips on raising a girl who knows better than to sext  strong female. 

Unlike the many, many others out there, this blog is here to make you feel GOOD about your parenting. After enjoying these stories of my daily parenting life, you will have such endorphin releasing thoughts like “wow, I’m glad that hasn’t happened to me, yet” or “wow, so glad I’ve never done that...well, not today at least.” 

Because parenting is damn hard and, as one person I know put it, “kids are basically feral.” Or at the very least are put on this earth to  test the limits of our sanity teach us things. Like patience. Joy. How to avoid projectile vomit. Yeah. It’s like that. You didn’t know parenting would sometimes feel like a war zone. 

This blog will commemorate those moments and at the very least recognize how children bring out the bizarreness of everyday life. It should make you feel damned good about how your day went, whether you are childless or childful. Unless you are in that lovely in-between period of expecting your first child. In that case, your screwed.
