This woman shared that her man paid all the bills while she went to school and raised their kids. Now she’s a registered nurse, and she’s holding things down while he studies engineering. That’s what Partnership looks like
My daughter told me I’m not allowed to share my homemade biscuits because they’re a secret just for us. And honestly, nothing prepares you for the way children love you…with this devastating, fierce little loyalty. How they cup you in their tiny warms hands & choose you again & again with zero hesitation. And the older she gets, the more I realize this is all I ever wanted, to be chosen in these small, ordinary ways that end up saving your whole life. Children make everything feel less cruel. And I don’t take a second of it for granted. She gives me the kind of love I didn’t know I deserved & all I want is to give it right back.
I saw a post from a dad that said he does a "family presentation night" once a month.
Each kid picks a topic. Practices it. Presents it.
His 8-year-old presented on dinosaurs.
Eye contact. Q&A. The whole thing.
My first reaction was that's extra.
My second reaction was that kid is going to eat in job interviews.
