The pressure to make everything amazing is 100 % unrealistic.
doesn’t mean my world automatically stops
Let’s be honest, I wish it wasn’t like this. I feel the most guilty in the summer, when I would give a kidney to be outside all day with those sticky fingers and dirty bare feet, sleeping in and staying up late making s’mores, but this just isn’t what works best for my family. So back to the eye roll. The phrase “you only have 18 summers” doesn’t bother me because I don’t think it is true — I actually feel quite the opposite. It is so deeply, painfully true that I become overwhelmed. But I would much prefer to be encouraged by someone saying, “Yes, you only have 18 summers, but IT WILL BE OKAY.” Then please assure me that there are good things that go along with my children growing up.
