A mom friend recently confided in me about her struggles in becoming a new mom. We talked about how the time for herself has diminished and how the constant care for her new baby is exhausting. And then she went on to comment, “I have no idea how you do it with three.” And right […]
Have you ever looked at someone from the outside and thought about how it seems they’ve got it all? I’ve caught myself doing that on occasion.
