I'm Back (And I Missed You Too)

Okay, let's be honest—I took an unplanned two-week break because even newsletter writers need to collapse on the couch with a bag of chips sometimes. But while I was gone, my inbox exploded with messages asking where the heck I went. Turns out, you actually missed the daily dose of real talk and practical tips. Who knew?

So here I am, back in your inbox with the same promise I've always kept: short, useful content that respects your time and sanity. No fluff, no guilt trips about homemade organic snacks, and definitely no suggestions to "cherish every moment" while your toddler dumps cereal on the floor for the third time today.

We're diving back in with solutions that actually work for real moms living real lives. Because you don't need another person telling you how to be perfect—you need someone who gets that good enough is often spectacular.

Three Things Worth Sharing
  1. Plot twist: Dolly Parton will mail a high-quality book straight to your door every month, and these literary gems from her Imagination Library have become our household favorites.
  2. Turns out giving your kids xylitol gum is actually genius parenting—here's the cavity-fighting goodness my 4-year-old has been chomping on lately.
  3. When you need a 5-minute brain break that isn't Wordle, these quick puzzle games are my go-to sanity savers:
    1. Letter Brew by TED

    2. Minute Cryptic

    3. NYT Connections
