And that was my first mother's day... #whydidistay

[Amber Timlin @AmberRTimlin]

Mother's Day: I got no card, no present, no flowers, no breakfast, no sleep and a crying baby all day.
#parenting #momlife

[Amber Timlin @AmberRTimlin]

It hasn't gotten any easier. I still cry. I still want to talk to her.

[Amber Timlin @AmberRTimlin]

My best friend passed a month ago. The amount of times I've wanted to call her and started crying since then is innumerable. #imissyou #grieving #loss

#DearSquishy not only is the alphabet song a favorite, at two weeks from turning 7, you're reading books on your own and doing math problems for fun!

#DearSquishy
At 2 and a half, you may not know (or like) the alphabet song, but you love picking out letters in books. #ToddlerLife #learning

[Amber Timlin @AmberRTimlin]

#DearSquishy you've since gotten over your initial compunction about the alphabet song. It is sung daily, multiple times in a row. #kindergartener

Parenting a teenager is hard. Especially when you didn't get the benefit of being the one to raise them in their formative years. #parenting #blendedfamily

This has since become one of my comfort movies. (PS can we get more romance roles for @haydenchristen ) #LittleItaly

"You should never have to force the love from a man's heart. If he doesn't give it freely, you don't want it"

Airports and hospitals give me #anxiety

[Amber Timlin @AmberRTimlin]

Only good thing is that now I know my baby is getting the care she needs.

[Amber Timlin @AmberRTimlin]

When your ex says your kid is "better" after being sick, then drops them off with 102.7° fever after insisting they were fine.

Your kid and their health should be more important than your plans.

[Amber Timlin @AmberRTimlin]

Why do I let men put games ahead of me or their family? Even when I'm sick.
Oh right, bc I want them to decide to care rather than having to nag or guilt them into it

#DearSquishy
"Give me your FLESH! I need human flesh!"
Something I never expected you to growl at me.
You chose a mermaid skeleton as your newest toy. #creepykid

@LibraryElfReads I totally get the struggle with being able to reach out for help. If anything I tend to isolate more when I need help bc I don't want to bother others with my issues. Luisa hits home hard.
You don't have to do it alone 💕

[Amber Timlin @AmberRTimlin]

When you've struggled to wake up before 10 all week because the lingering exhaustion of Covid, but the one night you stay up till 5a, you wake up at 8:30a.
WTF?!

[Amber Timlin @AmberRTimlin]

I hate being depressed because I just feel like I'm feeling sorry for myself #mentalhealth

[Amber Timlin @AmberRTimlin]

I hate when someone makes a big deal about being up and ready by a certain time, and then THEY aren't ready by that time. Like I got myself, my kid and your kid all up and ready to be out the door by 530am. But you just got in the shower🤬🤬🤬

@Teh_Gambit Congrats

[Amber Timlin @AmberRTimlin]

I hate my brain. It takes every small action or inaction and interprets the worst.
