- I do things like make cookies from scratch or chocolate chip muffins while the kiddo is napping. I’ve mastered the art of stealth baking. It stresses me out. But it also soothes me.

- Yesterday was rough. I tried to shower twice and both times I had to run out of the shower naked and shivering and half shampooed because the kiddo was wailing. But as frustrated and annoyed as I was, he never saw a hint of it. I’m all light and sweetness and Disney bluebird singing mushiness with him. He’s the only person in the entire world who ever sees that side of me.

- Sometimes when Ken and I are watching RuPaul’s Drag Race we look over and find that B has contorted himself so he can watch as well. My son likes to watch a show about drag queens. I applaud him.

- We’re starting Mommy & Me soon. I. AM. EXCITE.
