“I’ll be honest with you: during the holidays,

“I’ll be honest with you: during the holidays, I mourned that missing mantel to a disproportionate degree. And when Isaac, about six at the time, asked “How can Santa get in without a fireplace?” I felt, for just a moment, as though I’d failed as a mother. Let’s be honest: don’t we all have something like that? Some unmet standard we hang our holiday-mom hats upon, some memory from our childhoods – or photo from Instagram – we try in vain to re-create, worrying that if the picture looks different from the one in our heads, we’re letting our families down.”

Every day until December 25, I’m sharing a moment of truth, a tip or a bit of inspiration at @themomhour blog. Check out the whole series at themomhour.com/holidayhelp (link in bio.) #momlife #holidayhelp #holidayparenting #holidaymom #momhelp
