[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The friendship WILL change. Just accept that. Your friend WILL show up looking exhausted, or with mashed banana in their hair, or wearing two different shoes, or pull a dirty diaper out of their purse, or have to cancel last minute, or be running 20 minutes behind. DH and I have always made sure we don't talk about our kids unless our friends ask. When childfree friends come over we often have them come 15 minutes before bedtime, so they can see the kids, but the kids don't dominate our time together. [/quote] Ugh this whole first paragraph is such a ridiculous trope of the hot mess mother. I have never showed up to work or an event with food in my hair and a dirty diaper in my bag. Please do better and stop portraying all moms like this. [/quote]
