God sends small children into the world to expose men. you think you are holy until a three year old throws a bowl of cereal at the wall for the third time. you think you are patient until you have not slept for five nights straight, and the baby is still screaming. every half man, is found out by his own offspring. children are judges, sent in miniature to read your verdict out loud. God could have judged us from the throne. instead, he sent us toddlers. more effective
Pregnancy is HARD. Labor is HARD. Giving birth is HARD. Maintaining a good relationship with your partner during postpartum is HARD. Being a mother is HARD. Trying to love yourself while adjusting to a new body and life while still tending to a newborn is HARD.

The way you treat a woman when she's pregnant or postpartum will stay with her forever. Within those most vulnerable moments, she'll see who's truly there for her and who isn't. Give her a hard time while she's already drowning, and I promise she'll never look at you the same again.

One day, sooner than you think, the noise will quiet, the interruptions will slow, the small hands will no longer reach for yours, and what will remain is not the stroller you bought or the sleep you lost, it will be the relationship you built.
PLEASE STOP making it seem like itโs normal for the mother to have all the responsibilities for the kids. Itโs not normal. Itโs stressful and draining.
