In honor of National Parent’s Day on July 26th (can someone tell our kids this is a thing?), here’s a look back on life with littles. Don’t get me wrong, there are many fun things about having teens in the house - especially during the quarantine when we played games, worked puzzles and watched movies - and they can fix their own meals. But looking back, I feel nostalgia and love for that young mom in the trenches, falling into bed each night, having expended every ounce of physical and mental energy she had.
