I love this hot take. I relate to so much of it -- in both my experience of motherhood and the way I talk about my experience of motherhood. Thank you for sharing!

I feel so similarly to you, and I think it's primarily because I have an extremely involved and competent co-parent. I love being around my kid. I love that I get to come home to my little family unit and forget about whatever dumb shit happened earlier in the day. You've said it so well here.
