I will say that I have such appreciation for my few friends who share their honest struggles with me as much as their joys. The ones who confess that they don’t always like being a mother or don’t always feel love for their kids make me feel like a normal human, somehow — like life is tough and we’re all struggling and being a mom doesn’t somehow elevate you from the sorrows and disappointments of the world. It just brings a whole new set your way.
