Pulling the Curtain Back on Family Size

Do you ever see a mom and wonder how she does it? Especially when she has 5 kids? Well, we're pulling back the curtain on our parenting.!  Sisterhood of the Sensible Moms

Is your family travel sized or super-sized?

If you’re an Ellen, you are firmly in the “Have kids, will travel with a sweet neat vacation package built for 4”. If you’re an Erin, you’ll be strapping kids to the roof of the minivan, begging concierges for freebies and special room rates, and leaving luggage behind. Just kidding about all that, sort of. It’s not quite a Grapes of Wrath Joads-crossing-the-prairie situation, but the struggle is real. And Erin did leave behind luggage. She tells the story in our latest podcast.

While we are definitely gonna spend a decent amount of time talking about family size and how it colors our experience of motherhood, we will also talk a little about the challenges of raising a family with a large carbon footprint, how parenting morphs and changes, and about how every family flies its own flag.

We are having a great conversation over here. Just click the player at the bottom of the post and you can be part of it too!
