Love this! I love when anyone is willing to admit that they aren’t parenting perfectly. I always find myself carefully considering what I comment because I know how harsh people can be online even though I don’t even have a lot of followers. I have had people express surprise about my 4 year old’s later bedtime (9-9:30 if she naps), and I have just started admitting to falling asleep quite regularly while she watches Magic School Bus at 8 pm on a weekday and waking up at 8:30 to start her bedtime routine.

Farideh!!! I love her so. Also this woman is a musical genius/wizard — I made a joke to her in DMs this week and she was back not two hours later with a fully composed song based on my joke. HOW.

Just shared her songwriting wizardry with my two sisters - we so appreciate mom satire- we have to be able to laugh at ourselves and not take this whole endeavor so seriously- our mom certainly didn’t - and our grandma with 8 kids didn’t have time to!

"I surprised myself when I discovered that I don’t care." Lmao I love this energy and hope to have more of it in my life as I approach 40 this year.
