Only that.
Having a fourth child taught me how to relax. The word relax has not been in my vocabulary for most of my life, as a recovering perfectionist, it’s one I try to avoid since surely there’s always something that could be getting done. Action equaled productivity, and rest was merely an opportunity missed- or wasted. Mothers, although an honor, we are more than that title.

There are no easy ways to share a toilet seat with a spider
People often ask how they could become a ninja like me. That’s easy, I say. You could train like a maniac for 20 years. Or you could carry a cooler up the hill to your island cottage and walk nose-first into a spider web.
