Deep, heavy, sigh

Let me just preface this by saying: I HATE co-parenting. Truly hate it. Already. Also, I don’t hate my baby day but I definitely resent him for a couple reasons. And yes, there is a difference between hating him and resenting him. Y’all already know me and Bean’s dad are doing the whole bi-coastal, crossContinue reading “Deep, heavy, sigh”
