Sometime I think back to who I was before I had kids. I didn’t really want to have kids. I was the career girl. The travel girl. The host the parties girl.

If I could go back I would tell myself one thing:

You won’t miss any of this.

But once you have kids, you will spend the rest of your life missing every version of who they were.
You will miss the newborn sounds.
You will miss the crawling.
You will miss rocking them to sleep.
You will even miss the crying and the mess.
Every old photo you see will make you long for a version of them that will never exist again, because they are life.

Of course it is hard. But it is the best kind of hard.

@iam_preethi Also normal for some women feel very differently. Dopamine naturally suppresses prolactin, but at letdown, dopamine drops sharply so prolactin can surge for milk release. That sudden dopamine dip triggers a brief wave of doom, nausea, or anxiety. It’s a physiological response.

What a run!

For not playing very many tournaments per year, @chalie_hook put on quite the performance to wrap up 2025.

The end of the @Phillies and @Dodgers game yesterday was hard to watch obviously because of how it ended. I woke up this morning still devastated for Orion Kerkering. But I’ll tell you what I did see: In a moment of total disbelief and heartbreak that their season ended so abruptly, catcher JT Realmuto consoling Orion. Nick Castellanos running in from right field to put his arms around Orion. Manager Rob Thomson waiting at the top step for his pitcher to hug him and remind him that he was loved. Sometimes we think so much about outcomes and performances that we forget that these are just people. With real emotions. And in that moment Orion had his team loving all over him because when you play with somebody for 162, plus spring training, plus playoffs… you become family.
Were they sad they lost? Of course. But their heartbreak for Orion and support for him was clear and great to witness. In a moment of defeat and total shock , the Phillies showed true class and support for their young player who made a mistake.
Well done Phillies.
And congrats Dodgers.
