A letter to new mamas who are back at work.
“It takes a village to raise a child.” That’s right—an entire small town. Cut yourself a break—you’re just one woman.
You would think almost dying would make me grateful for living—but it left me stunned and incredibly sad.

Is it *really* the most wonderful time of the year?
Why was new parenthood so hard on me and my husband? Because we just didn’t know what we were doing.
It is daunting to bring a little human heart into this world, knowing all this world can contain.
“The question boils down to this: Which option will help me be the best mama I can be for my baby?”
Yes I’m exhausted. And yes, I’ve never been happier.
The problem with the scorecard game? I am really good at keeping my score but I don’t notice my husband’s efforts.
