Four Tips on Motherhood:
ONE
You do not have to do it all. You are not the only person in your household and it’s not all on you to keep the place running. Share the load.
TWO
You and your partner are a team. Whether you are married or co-parenting, work together. Not you telling your partner what to do. No leaving post-its on the bathroom mirror.

You’re never going to get through your to-do list. I don’t tell you this to make you sad. The list is never going to end and that is ok!
