I have to go shopping tomorrow and I’m dreading it.

I’ve been pregnant three times, and I have two beautiful, amazing, awe-inspiri

I have a confession to make. Target, meh. I’m just not that into it.

“Is she Black or white?” I asked another mom who was describing a little girl in her son’s class that she thought my family might know.

My parenting mantra is: "Do your best and hope he doesn't turn into a sociopath." And I guess that's really all we can do, because if we're honest with ourselves, I think none of us really know what we're doing.

As a mother of boys, I find this trend disturbing. Yes, we need to build up our girls. We need to empower them and teach them that they are capable and viable and powerful — that they are smart and that they matter. But we cannot devalue our boys in the process.

I’m lazy as hell, you guys. I know it’s true and I’m not particularly ashamed.
