“Co-parenting isn’t easy, but it can be so rewarding when you manage to get it right.”
“‘Is that okay? Am I being too hard on him?’ If he was my child, I would have gone from 0 to 100!”
“I had no idea what postpartum rage was, had no idea that becoming a mother would open all these childhood wounds, and no idea the amount of anger I had kept locked away.”
“I’m not sure why he left them, but I’m glad he did.”
“I couldn’t find any books that answered my daughter Zoe’s questions about foster care and adoption, so I decided to write my own!”
“I still remember opening the email and feeling a punch to the stomach. All of the years of not fitting in, not looking like my siblings, and feeling rejected time and time again, made sense.”
“I know our parents do their best to raise us to have more than they did, but that’s not the hand I was dealt.”
“At 8 years old, our beautiful daughter Natalie already had this idea that the bigger the clothes number, the less value she had. The bigger the number, the less food she ate. The bigger the number, the more she won’t have friends. My mama heart broke into a million tiny pieces.”
“I remember feeling broken, wondering why they sold me motherhood in such a beautiful and shiny package, only to discover later that it was a mirage.”
“The voice on the other end was saying, ‘Congratulations, Mama!’ I truly cannot remember another word of that life-changing conversation. My head was buzzing.”
