two good little reads: one funny, one serious

I love this:

"You are no longer allowed to brag that you cooked a three-course dinner. Unless of course you made three courses because your three children won’t all eat the same damn thing."

And on a more serious note, this:

"Motherhood is so often this giving of self in our homes that no one sees."
