It is good to be the one with all the mom energy in the family (or the room as the case may be.)

People listen to you.

They look to you for advice.

Kids want to be the one you talk to first.

They ask for an opinion (even if they don’t actually request it…)

You are responsible and respected.

The menu is yours – and of course you think of others when creating it.

Summer weekends are upon us and the amount of effort it takes to muster all the mom energy is tremendous. Be the one. You know who you are. Enjoy it. You deserve it.
