@vanderjames : There’s so much social media pressure these days on mothers (and women in general) to be perfect. And it’s nonsense. No human is perfect, let alone one with a job as tricky and fluid as motherhood. I’d like to honor and appreciate @vanderkimberly for being something better than perfect: For being real. There are few things more panic-inducing than the idea you may have done something wrong as a parent, but she remains blisteringly honest and determinedly authentic, even when it’s inconvenient or downright complicated. Her willingness to embrace the truth - and dare give voice to how she understands it at the time - is what makes her my my hero. That, and the fact that she grew my five favorite people inside of her, birthed them, fed them, and continues to raise and love and nurture them EVERY DAY - including the one who woke up vomiting this morning 😍 #HappyMothersDay baby. And to all the other moms out there doing their best... let’s toast to recognizing this perfection game for the scam that it is. 🥂
