I could talk FOR HOURS ABOUT THIS WITH YOU.

“Two question marks. A desperate mom. “

I found out this week our nanny is moving. She’s reliable, wonderful, punctual. I am already a wreck.

My thumbs are sore from all the rapid fire texting to coordinate something.

and the bench. THE BENCH. It’s so real, i have SIX ON MY BENCH. And sometimes NONE OF THEM CAN HELP.

Why must it be so hard.

Loved this one, Charlie. Wish I couldn’t relate.

Can I consider this comment next weeks essay?

When I wrote "Two question marks. A desperate mom." I immediately thought of you lolol.

I can't believe your nanny is moving! It seems like she only just started!

Your comment does not count as your essay but by all means, please write about it. I would love to read someone else's experience with this. The struggle is real!

It's tough!! It sounds like your parenting with a RIE approach - try asking for nannies who support that. ✌️
