Hey, guys.I'm Becca.And I'm Chelsey.And on this episode of You'd Be Surprised podcast, we are talking about you.Me.
We're getting to know Becca, her and all of her wonderfulness.You're amazing.
You really are.You amaze me.People say that.
I'm just doing what I am doing.
I don't know.Some people like you just do so much, and you're just amazing.Let's get into all about you.Let's do it. Tell me about you growing up, your family.
Oh, man.This is a wild question.I don't even know if I've told you everything.
Oh, I'm sure you haven't.
Probably not.Starting from the beginning, my mom was a teen mom.She got pregnant when she was 15, turned 16, and then had me. So very young.
I obviously don't remember a lot of that, but her and my biological dad did not stay together I remember a time not having a dad figure and then she met this guy and that is who I call my dad and he raised me and starting out I always knew
I had a biological dad out there somewhere.And sometimes it would bug me, sometimes it wouldn't.I have a sister that's five years younger than me.And then Jordan, 10 years younger than me.And then Hunter is 12 years younger than me.
So pretty spread out.I'm the oldest.Yeah, I just remember being so dramatic and feeling like my sister ruined my life, but she didn't.Love her now.
I feel like all sisters feel like that, don't they?
I know. Love her now, but oh man, we fought so much.If you'd have told me growing up, you will love your sister one day so much that you would do anything for her, I've been like, you're freaking high.Because we were so spread out.
We were never really into the same things at the same time.You know how some siblings are in high school together or in the dating scene together.
Like I was married before she even graduated and we never could relate sadly because there was such a big gap growing up. I had a pretty normal childhood from the outside looking in.
A lot of people, because my mom got married when I was so young, didn't even know that my dad wasn't my biological dad.Fast forward to two weeks before I turned 18, my biological dad finds me on Facebook. That's wild.
It was a lot to process, and I'll probably get into that in a different episode.I grew up in a very small town.Our first house was on five and a half acres.We did not have close neighbors.You had to walk to the bus.
My parents did not have a lot of money, so we didn't do any elaborate trips growing up.
Yeah, I get that.Then what happened after high school?Where did you go from there?
I actually finished high school early.I still went to my graduation, but I didn't have the whole last semester of my senior year.And then I decided I would go and do beauty school, so I started beauty school the March before I technically graduated.
And, oh man, got kicked out of beauty school.I wish I was joking.Yeah, beauty school is really hard for me.Like, it was so fun and I met so many fun girls and had a good time.I moved out of my parents' house.I was like, I can do what I want.
I lived with my aunt and uncle. Yeah, I did graduate, luckily.Seriously, if it were not for my husband, I would have been a beauty school dropout.Met my husband shortly after I started beauty school.It was not love at first sight. Just kidding.
Like, he was cute, obviously.But I just remember the first time we hung out, he was driving his mommy's 300.I'm like, this spoiled brat.I came from a family where I had to work for everything.
I had two jobs in high school to be able to have a car, and pay for my gas, and to have clothes, and to do anything.
My parents just, I think that's where my independency came from, is they taught me from a young age to be very independent and work for things that you want.
yeah and so yeah he just seemed like this spoiled little brat told me that he hated country music on our first date and i'm like this guy is so lame but then he kept calling me and texting me and i'm like okay hi maybe this could be fun i don't know so then we just kept hanging out and our two friends were dating each other at the time but they didn't stick around for
too long.And we dated for a while, so let's see, we met in May of 2010 and we got married in June of 2011.Not too long.Yeah, but people get married after like two months.I don't know.
Beauty school is hard enough and Caden was going to Utah State at the time, moved out of his parents' house during that time and having younger siblings at home still, so it was fun.I look back and I'm like, I was just a baby.What were we doing?
We were all babies.All babies.But I didn't feel like that at the time of getting married.Did you?
No.We felt like we were all grown up.
I know.I'm like, I'm a grown woman.I can make my own choices.Yep.I remember some people being like, are you sure?You're so young.Are you sure you want to get married?And I'm like, yeah.I'm sure.
We just thought we knew everything.
yeah but i mean it's worked out like you wouldn't change anything you wouldn't do it no like you wouldn't not i actually think i would change and i probably would get married sooner sooner than a year why
Because a lot of what was holding me back was, I'm going to school.I have nothing to offer you.That was my mentality.But I think that was my biggest holdback is, hi, I'm in school.I have nothing to offer you as a wife.So we waited.
We got married 10 days after I graduated.After you graduated.
So that is true.It was just school.
yeah it was school and now looking back we would have just made it work you know like you just figure it out yeah we got married in the temple so obviously you know you can't have sex you have to wait like you have to be very careful and after being married you're like gosh why did we wait yeah yeah obviously we knew why we waited but we still could have gotten married in the temple but we could have just
got married sooner in the temple like why did we wait a year yeah well just even wait till i was done with school i had a june wedding which is what i feel like i always wanted and now i'm like june why june Do you look back at it?
June is pretty, though.I know, but do you think back and you're like, why was I so picky about this?About what month you got married.Yeah.And fast forward, Caden quit going to Utah State, decided he wanted to be an electrician.
And if you know anything about construction, summer is the busiest.We never celebrate our anniversary in June.I remember the first couple of years we were married,
November would roll around and we're like, yeah, we should probably do something for our anniversary.Six months later.We were just broke newlyweds, and he would work any bit of overtime he could.So we had money.
And June came and went, and you're like, oh, we didn't celebrate that.Yeah, so just get married whenever.Like, why does it matter?
I'm just glad we didn't get married in the winter.To have an indoor winter wedding would not be fun to me.
Right. I agree.Winter weddings are so hard around here.
Yeah, because it's so bad and so cold.
So anyways, that's probably the one thing.That was a long tangent, but that was probably the only thing I would change about getting married is just doing it and getting married sooner.Yeah.
That's good if that's your only regret.
Tell me about deciding to have kids and how all that starts going.
Oh my gosh, this could be like four hours.Long story short, I knew I wanted to have kids.I was the crazy girl that was like, let's just start a family.
We can do this.Yeah.I just want to be a mom.Like, I just want all these cute little babies that look like you and me.That's what I wanted.
And I think growing up in the Mormon religion, that is truly what you're taught, like to bring babies into the world, to have families.Family is the center. And I love that.And I, I do believe that, but we obviously struggled with infertility.
So it was really hard to that a little bit.
Yeah.After about a year of being married, we're like, let's have kids.Like, let's do this.The first couple of months we just were like, okay, that happens.It happens.Right.So a couple of months ago, I didn't happen.
And then fast forward a year goes by and we still have not been able to even get pregnant.And. It was hard.Oh my gosh.Everyone's heart is hard, I've decided.
It is.Everyone's heart is hard in their own ways.Yeah.
And I remember it being so hard for you.
Oh my gosh.Sometimes I just get so emotional thinking back to it, because it was a hard time.And I feel like I've grown a lot through it, even though at the time, I just wanted anyone else's heart.It was hard.
And naively, I thought having kids would just be easy.Like, oh, you have sex one time and you're pregnant.That's literally how I was raised.Oh, if you have sex, you will get pregnant.That was my mentality around it.And so it was really hard and
just a shock to not have kids.And then it was like, well, my worth came into play.Well, what good am I if I can't have kids?What do I have to offer?
Or why am I not good enough?
Yeah.So we did a bunch of testing, literally no answers.Caden had Superman swimmers. I cannot believe the volume, like how good they are.I'm like, cool, good for him.So it's not him, okay, I get it.So then it goes to the female, right?
We went down and did some stuff with the infertility clinic in Salt Lake and It was a hard time, but we also grew closer together.He honestly was what I needed.
I look back, I even look back at like past relationships that I had had, and I don't think I could have had a better husband.He just, he was what I needed to honestly get through it.
I can't even explain what it was but I just yeah look back and I don't think I would have survived this with anyone else.Yeah.As hard as it was.Then we come to the conclusion well I okay I just want to be a mom.
We got to the point of hey you can do IVF.We don't know if it's gonna work.We don't know why you can't get pregnant. Everything looks good, like everything.
So yeah, we got to that fork where you can either do IVF and see if that works, or you can try other avenues of parenting.So we sat with it for a while and I don't know, every time we would go to schedule stuff for IVF, it just felt icky.
All I wanted to do is be a mom.Finally, I decide I don't need to have biological children to be a mom. And I think a lot of that was the fear, like being scared of doing IVF and it not working, which really that happens for a lot of people.
It also went hand in hand with like rejection, you know?So we kind of put IVF on hold and went the route of adoption.And kind of at the same time, our adoption and our foster care story go
alongside each other because at the same time we were approached a couple different times about adoption.By this point I had been a little bit more open on Instagram about our infertility and not being able to have kids.
Not a ton but a little bit so I think people were kind of aware of, oh I don't think they can have kids.
We were approached by a couple different people about adoption, but at the same time I was working at the salon and one of the girls there had done foster care.It was intriguing.I'm like, what is foster care?What is it?
Because I have no freaking clue.I would listen to her.Her story is a little bit different because she did foster care being a, what's the word, when you're family. They have a word for it.I don't know that word.
Anyways, she had taken in her sister's kids.And so it was a little bit different.She'd also struggled with infertility.So I really connected with this friend at the salon, started asking her about foster care and what it was like.
I just remember going home to Kayden and being like, what do you think about this?But not in a place of, Oh, I hope we can adopt out of foster care.We had put IVF on hold and I just need something to take my mind off of my shit life, which wasn't.
really that bad but you know when you're in the deep it's like it feels yeah gut-wrenching so yeah we went into foster care with the intention of let's just help families I just want to be a light to other people
so that I can get my mind off of my heart.We went and did foster classes, and at the same time, we had a friend that approached us and was like, my sister is going to lose her kid once he's born, will be removed.
I know you're interested in foster care.How do you feel about this?And this is, I'm going to go into a little more detail at a later time about this, but that kind of got us really excited about adoption in general.
It obviously didn't work out, which I can see now looking back why it didn't, but that kind of is what pushed us into foster care.Just finding something to fill our time, per se.
And it took your mind off of...
trying to get pregnant right because you're like yeah by this point unless we do IVF like we will not be having biological kids so yeah it was just like let's go this route and see what happens I feel like it was kind of what you needed at the time because I remember when you were going through it and you would tell me about it every month when your period come you would go into a depression and it was so hard
It was so hard.It was so hard for you.And even on months that we weren't trying, just knowing, OK, cool, my body cannot make a baby yet again another month.That is so hard.Yeah.And yeah, so we go a year without getting any phone calls for kids.
Actually, I take that back.We did get one, but it was for respite, which if you know anything about foster care, respite is basically like a glorified babysitter.I hate saying that because in a dumbed down version, that's what it is.
You can do respite care for a weekend.You can do respite care for a month, which the family that had this child was going out of the country on vacation and could not take this foster kid with them.
They have to be approved to be able to leave the state or the country.
Yeah.So we did not end up taking that respite case, which It was so hard saying no.In the moment, I was like, oh my gosh, how do you say no?And Kaden's like, no.It was a teenage boy.
At this point, Kaden had been working shift, which meant he worked some night shifts, some day shifts.I don't feel OK about this.
And it being your very first placement.
Right.Not knowing what to expect.Then, OK, so a full year goes by.In foster care, you have to renew every year.So I'm like, I don't even want to renew.They don't need us. there's no use.And Kaden's like, well, we did all this work.
We should at least keep our license open.I'm like, okay, fair enough.So we renew and a week later we get a phone call for our oldest three kids.
Three, three, three siblings.
Yeah.I was at work and they're like, we have three kids.They're a little bit older.Originally we had told them zero to five.When they called, they're like, we know you want little kids, but listen.I'm like, OK.I'm open to it.Oh my gosh.
I learned so much.Plus, that same week, COVID shut the world down.So all in a week, I had three kids I was taking care of.The world was shutting down.Jobs were closing.Do you remember then?I worked in a salon.It was a crazy time.
It was insane.Never again.And then, yes, you have these three kids. And what were their ages when you got them?
Twins that were eight, boy and a girl, and then a ten-year-old girl, which at this point I was just like, let's do it.
I felt so good about it, which was crazy because when they called us for the respite call, I could tell that feeling of like, like I want to do this, but I don't think this feels right.
Yeah, it definitely has to feel right.
I mean, it can still feel scary.I remember hanging up from when they called about my three kids.I was like, what did I just agree to?Oh my gosh, they're bringing me three kids and I have to be a mom overnight.Like this is wild.And that was in March.
In December, we got a little girl. Do you remember her?Okay, we got a little girl and then about six months later we got our two little boys.They came to us and that was even crazier.
So you were like instant family.I remember teasing you.It was so quick you became instant family.
Yeah, in a little over a year we went from zero to five.
And then, yeah, two months after the little boys came, the little girl that we had in our home, she was reunified.So I guess we went from zero to six.Zero to six.Yes.I just remember Caden, my husband, being like, let's chat.Let's rethink this.
I think we're capped out on children.What are you doing?
At this point she's like, hello, do you want another kid?Yes, I do.
Please bring them over.And Caden's like, stop.I know.Your caseworkers come every month for a home visit just to check in.And I remember Caden telling our caseworker, hi, can you call me first next time?She's like, no.Do not call my wife.
I know your wife's going to say yes, so no.It was so funny.But that is a lot.
To go from zero to five is a lot.
It was a lot, but looking back, we just went with it.We just do it.And maybe Kaden has a different perspective, but I just remember being like, yeah, a kid needs a home.I will open my doors.We will find them a bed.
But I think infertility also really helped with that.Like just, I don't know, having a different perspective and wanting to help kids who needed help and their parents who needed help.We have some unfortunate stories within our foster care.
Cases that aren't really ideal, but yeah, we made the best of it, you know?
We're going to go into a whole other episode on this alone, so you can go into more detail then.But just so they know, you never adopted the three foster kids.
Right.Our oldest three are Native American, and we are white.You're too white.I mean, yeah.We were told in a court hearing, these people are too white.They would jokingly be like, well, maybe if she dyed her hair dark.
And you did.You tried that.
I totally did, but not for that reason.More for, I just needed a change and I went more red than dark, but yes.And then my two little boys came and we were, we were able to adopt them within foster care.There's just a lot of trauma.
There's a lot of heartache along with celebration.
Because you're celebrating for you but you're also mourning for the biological parents.There's a lot that goes into that.
Totally.So it's hard.Someone's hurting no matter what the outcome is.
Well and that's foster care or adoption.
There's always someone hurting.
Yeah.Which is hard.And it is for me it's hard to celebrate knowing that someone's hurting.I'll get into their stories later on but We actually adopted the two little boys first, and then got guardianship of the three.
So then we were done with foster care.
So you can have guardianship of them until they turn 18, and then you could adopt them, right?Yes, legally.Legally, because they're an adult at 18, right?OK.
I don't think that will happen, but yes, legally that could be an option.And then two months later, I got so sick.I wonder why.I was like, Kaden, I think I'm dying.I legit thought I had vertigo.
was making an appointment I'm like I probably have some disease and I'm going to die now that we've adopted these kids and have guardianship and like I was so psycho so so psycho he's like holy shit my wife is seriously so crazy but I think infertility brought out a lot of insecurity throughout my life because
you'd feel like it's too good to be true.I have these kids now, something bad's going to happen.
So, Caden convinces me to take a pregnancy test because I had made an appointment and they're gonna ask you when your last period was and I don't even know, like we're way past this.
We're just having free sex.
Yeah, like who needs to track that anymore?
So, I take a test and it instantly, a faint two pink lines and I'm like, what the crap? I have never in my life had a positive pregnancy test.We literally could not even get pregnant.So I'm like, no.So I take 10 more.And Caden is just dying.
Well, who's the father?What the hell?And I'm like, I'm like, it's you.Hi.Come on.Yeah.And he's like, I don't like, we were, we just were in such shock.
Well, yeah, because you had been married for so long.
It was so shocking.11 years.11 years we had been married.And you hear these crazy stories all the time.But in my mind, I'm like, it's been 11 years.
And I know a lot of women deal with miscarriages, or there's just so much within the infertility world.But for us, it was we literally could not even conceive.
Never had a positive pregnancy test.
So it wasn't.I still pinch myself.Did I really have a baby?Is she real?
And she's the cutest freaking thing.
quite sassy but she is so fun and just I don't know a little miracle babe yeah so get pregnant give birth and we have this little miracle baby girl which and we're just like all dying six kids we are back up to six kids and I am pretty sure we're done yeah I think Caden's done for sure yeah he's for sure done I think I was probably almost 10
No, I think I was like eight weeks pregnant and we get a phone call from our caseworker.She's like, Hi, I have a two week old little boy.
How did I not know that?I don't think I knew that.
um we didn't really tell anyone and we didn't end up taking him well yeah and so like i'm sick and i'm pregnant i wasn't even super sick at this point i thought i was sick in other ways yeah not pregnancy sick i looked at caden and i'm like we should do this he's like i will effing kill you he's like you are crazy i am married to a crazy person
I legit called her back.I go in another room because we hadn't told anyone that we knew we were pregnant.I'm just being like, hi, so I'm pregnant and she just starts laughing.
This caseworker that we had known, because she'd been on all of our cases, she's like, I'm not even surprised."And I'm like, what?This is such a huge shock for us, for someone to be like, I'm not even surprised.I'm like, oh, okay.
Listen, we'll take this two week old.This is what I told her.We'll take this two week old if it's short term.I cannot commit to longterm.I was having dreams that it was going to be twins.
at this point I hadn't even had an ultrasound I just knew I was pregnant and Caden was like you told her what?
I'm like well yeah even if it's for like two months this will be good practice he's just like I literally don't even know what to do with you okay They did find another placement for this little baby.
So then after that, Caden was like, we will not be renewing our license.Lose my number.
Yeah.Please do not renew our license.
Please do not call my wife.
Yeah.So six kids and now we're just living the dream with six kids.
But you really have the cutest family.They're all so cute in their own ways.And it is the cutest dynamic.You've got the cutest family.Yeah.
And you've got a family that you probably never expected that you would have.
oh my gosh no because if it had worked out the way that you wanted it to and that had prayed for so long you would have won you wouldn't have what you have no or if we would have been able to have kids i just think
Gosh, I would have missed out on all of this, which some of it was hard.I'm not going to lie.Foster care was hard in its own ways, but I truly feel like I'm the mom I am because of what we have been through.Infertility, foster care, all that.
And even on the hard days, I love my kids so much.All of them.And we've had a lot of struggles, but what's life without struggle, right?
Everyone has struggles.I don't feel like there's any family out there that doesn't.But it's just crazy to me to think that, I mean, where would these kids be if you hadn't done or it hadn't happened the way that it happened?
Yeah, that's hard to think about.They could have been somewhere completely different and not a good family.You never know.They are so blessed that you struggled.
But it's also humbling to know that I would take that struggle again to have this family that we've put together.And yeah, if you'd have told me that I would have had a blended family, I would have been like, you're crazy.
I'm going to have all blonde children.That's in one of my Instagram reels.I always pictured blonde little kids running around, but here I am.Five.They're all dark.All of them.
Except for my last, yeah.To think of what I would have missed out on.
You wouldn't have what you have, which is crazy to think about.
Yeah.It's been a wild ride, for sure.
But that's a big part of your life.Oh, like a lot.Yep.So what do you do now?What is your... What don't I do?What do you do for work?
I work in a salon a couple days a week.That's what I was doing before kids and, you know, what my life is now.I had a little hobby sign shop for a while.And then when I started Little Letty Co, when did I start that?
So two years ago?Or was it three years ago?
I think it was a year and a half ago, actually.Part of Little Letty Co.came from your previous business.And I think I bought that in, like, December?November?December?And then I had her in January.Yeah.So then it kind of took a minute.
I was going to maternity leave.Why am I doing it?Kayden's like, why are you doing this?I'm like, I don't know. Why do I do anything?
Why are we the way that we are?We don't know.
I have an idea, and I'm like, yeah, let's do it.I want to do this.And Kaden was like, hold up.Wait a minute.So yeah, right before I had Leti. Named it Little Letty Co.
and I took some of your milestone sets and your growth charts and then I've just built on top of it and added to it.So I have a milestone business for kids and babies.
Which is so cute.You have taken it beyond what I ever could have.
Yes.I love that.When I was thinking about selling it, it was almost like I didn't want to sell it because it was my dream and my vision.It was like your baby, yeah.And I didn't want it just to turn to crap.
yeah and so when you were gonna buy it i was like this is so right because she's the perfect person to you have such a creative mind and a drive to know where to take it and you have i've been amazed on everything that you've done thanks it's really so that actually means a lot because taking something that you started but you've been so supportive of me turning it into my own thing too
So that means a lot that you think that because now I have Little Letty Co.and it's the perfect mix.
Yeah, it's enough time to get you out of the home and have some adult time, adult conversations.
Oh my gosh, which was so good for my mental health.When COVID shut the world down, you know, and I took some time off because we had three kids.We were just trying to figure life out, plus managing all this stuff.
I didn't even last a month, and I could ball to Caden.I'm like, I have to go back to work.I cannot. I cannot just not do anything.And you couldn't go anywhere.I remember social distancing.It was so hard.
I've always known that I wanted to be a mom, but I also wanted to have something that I could put my creative energy into and have me time and feel proud of something that I've created.Yeah.Yeah.
Yeah.And there are some moms out there. that they can just stay home all the time.
Yes, and they love it.They truly enjoy it.
But that is not me.I need my alone time, whether it's for an hour, whether it's for a day of working.It refills my bucket so I can go home and work.
Work is not work for me, but being a mom is work. Even on the good days, the easy days, it's still work.You're still in charge of these humans and you have to get them places and it's a full-time job being a mom.
So moms that stay home, truly, I don't know how you do it, but you're freaking superwoman.How do you do this and stay sane?I don't know.I don't know.It's good for me mentally just to have an out.
I agree with that. So final question and then we'll wrap this up.What is something about you that would surprise other people if they found out about you?
that I have six kids.People die.People just, their mouths drop.When they find out I have six kids, they're like, there's no way.And I'm like, I'll tell you.
The funniest thing, when you're out and about with your kids, when I get this, they're like, oh my gosh, your hands are so full.Yes, but my heart is fuller.I do feel like that.You're used to it, but it shocks other people.
I do feel like on some days my hands are full, though.I do go to bed and I think, what the freak am I doing? Six is a lot.But then I just remember these kids need me.There's a reason.There's a reason that they're in my home.
And so I think that's just, that's what gets me through the hard days.But sometimes we're out and about and I'm like, are we missing a kid?Do we have them all?I'm like counting heads.Yes.I'm like, okay, they're all here.It's fine.
Before Leti, when we had five, not that six is really much different, but when we had five, I didn't feel like five kids was a lot. I didn't.People would be like, five kids?You have five kids?And I'm like, OK, but listen.It's been a short time.
I haven't done this for 12 years.And I don't feel like I have a lot of kids.But then we would get family pictures, or we would get a group picture somewhere.And I'm zooming in.I'm like, holy shit, I have five kids.That's a lot of kids.
Or you go out to eat, and you get the bill, and you're like, holy.Like, what? Yeah.Why is this so much?Oh, because we have five kids.
We have a lot of kids.Yeah.
And then when Leti came, oh, man, just being pregnant and experiencing that, I loved it.At the same time, it was hard to be pregnant and have five kids and experiencing a pregnancy for the first time with five kids.
I tell people all the time, we all experienced it for the first time.We all grew through that experience.You did.Even your kids did.Because my oldest, Swayze, I'm like, hi, can you help me? Can you feed these children for me?
And she totally stepped up, like she was so awesome to do that.But we all, we all grew a lot through that.Enter our sixth and I'm like, well, this is a different world.Babies are a different world.Let me just tell you right there.
Babies and young kids are a lot more work.A lot more work.With our older kids, I'm like, I could do 10 kids.This is so easy.I mean, it wasn't always easy, but they were just at good ages, I think.So Mac was the youngest when he came.
He was a year and a half, but he had a lot of delays.He didn't really cry.He was a very easy baby in a sad way.And so My kids were just easy ages.Yeah.My oldest four were pretty independent.
Kai came with his own set of hard things that we had to work through, but the sixth kid is what rocked the boat for us.I'm like, but it was easy.What happened?Oh, a baby being pregnant and giving birth.
And then this whole new world of having a newborn.And she was the chillest baby I've ever seen.I even tell people she was an easy newborn. It wasn't even that hard, it was just different.
And then navigating a newborn for the very first time, because we'd never had a newborn, while trying to raise five kids.I'm like, what even is this?
A lot of learning for all of us, but we love it.And I love looking at my family photos, because I'm like, my kids are all so unique.And I love that.And I love the blended.And I never, never imagined my family would look like this.
Never imagined all the trauma that we would have to navigate to get to a family, like having a family.But gosh, it was worth it.
That's so fun.You do have the cutest life.
It's hard, but it's cute.
Looking from the outside in, obviously, it's not easy.It's not, you know, but I think you're doing a great job.
Thank you.That means a lot because, yeah, motherhood is hard.It is hard.I think I was just so ready to be a mom that some of the hard things that came with being a mom was such a shock.I'm like, oh, OK.
I have to, yeah, I have to learn how to parent this personality or, you know, just different things.Manage schedules and sports and all these things, but.
Yes, they totally are.We do not get enough credit.No, we don't.And that might sound selfish.But it's true.But it's true.
It is so true.Well, I think you're great.I love you.
I'm excited next week we get to learn about you.Yay.Yay.Yeah.You've got some good stuff, too.Some good stories.You've been through a lot.
I do.Yep.It'll be a good one.
It'll be a good one.I'm excited.OK.
