I’m a new mom of one and haven’t had to handle solo parenting yet but I appreciate this post a lot. And your son’s cat petting sign was adorable and I’m glad he got some takers!

My husband is a physician and during the weeks he is in the hospital I am the on duty parent 95% of the 7 days. He sleeps here and does try to help where he can but most of things fall on me. And over the years those mountains have gotten smaller for me, too. I was (still am really) often frustrated that even though this was our life from the beginning those weeks would deplete me in ways I hated.
