Solidarity! Mine is also super physically affectionate and always has to be touching me.

Any other introverted moms who have an extremely extroverted child who follows them around like a shadow????

I love him but my head feels like it’ll pop off my head any second now

Yooooo third grade drama is so real!! Props to Lola for standing her ground but also you for working to find that middle ground. My third grader wrote a letter to her friend who routinely white lies and I found out bc she asked me how to spell β€œannoying” πŸ˜‚

Woke up with a stiff neck so my pain is your gain! (This was made a few years ago so low quality 😬)

Your instincts to keep your wrist neutral and restrict arm and shoulder raising is spot on! I would try varying keeping your elbow close to your body, and then doing it the way you’re showing it here to give different muscles a break.

There is no bigger glow down than the moment you try to style your new haircut by yourself.

My Chinese patient with dementia scolding me every 5 minutes for not speaking to my children in Mandarin feels like (well deserved) karmic retribution from my ancestors.

Heads up, don’t let your rage/cope crafting end up in pain.

You know that saying, β€œthe days are long but the years are short”, that’s commonly used to refer to raising kids? β€œI blinked and they grew 10 years”?

Yea, I’ve been blinking lots and my 5 year old is still 5.
