Parents — we’re the worst.

My anxiety doesn’t mean I can’t be a good parent. In fact, it makes me a better one.

Being a parent isn’t everything.

Reading in bed together, while it might not be a major milestone — like marriage or having children — truly is a significant event in a relationship.

Go ahead. Give in to the misery.

No energy at 3PM? The mid-afternoon slump is a well-known phenomenon.

My whole life, people have been telling me I’m “too much." It's BS.

Marriage isn’t a game. But playing one can actually help strengthen it. So, game on!

Sometimes you have to let go of your dreams. As the years go by, you come to the realization that who you are now is pretty much who you’ll be forever.
