Probably not. But we totally do have rough moments that often wipe away the most recent perfect moment in a heart beat. Definitely a topic worth talking about. And writing about. It was Jennifer Senior’s New York Magazine article that started it all. Shout out to Jason, Paul, and Jennifer who along with me had a chance to talk about it on Tell Me More with Michel Martin on NPR.
Wow! What a deep article and conversation! I’ve had to argue this point with my husband over the course of our five years of marriage, and I’m beginning to see some truth to it now. I can’t say that he hates parenting, but he’s not “overjoyed” or “enthusiastic” about it either.
