So I doubt she contributed the way she’s describing or if she did, it’s bc she was a different woman than she is now. So the mom/parent she is now, can’t really sell the message for me.

This.

And props to her for finally discovering the value of a good toner for blonde hair. I'll give her that. It looks a lot better.

So much better that it almost looks like fake hair.

With something near nostalgia and barely south of PTSD, I am remembering this time of year when all my kids were basically in elementary school. We had five.

F.I.V.E.
5
3+2

In my BONES I can remember the teacher gifts, the class present exchange, the Christmas program, the Spirit Week with a different outfit every day (Jesus send the rapture), the class parties (all at the same time), 24 individually wrapped Christmas treats.

Outside of school: The Trail of Lights, the Christmas movies, the Living Nativity, the Main Street Parade, the Singing Christmas Tree, the Christmas lights neighborhood, the Barnes and Noble read aloud, the children's program at church, the tree, the inflatables, the garland, the stockings, the decorations, the Elf on a Shelf.

The gift sleuthing, gift budgeting, gift hunting, gift buying, gift hiding, gift wrapping, gift counting, gift managing not just for the kids, but also the in-laws, the spouse, the extended family, the coworkers, the UPS guy, the friends, the neighbors, the white elephants, the Angel Tree.

All while managing the parties, the dinners, the workplace Secret Santa exchange, the food, the baking, the traditions, the ornaments, the schedule, the travel, the hosting, and the family factions.

Plus a full time job.

YOU GUYS.

Sending every scrap of love to the young mamas out there doing aaaaaaaall the damn things with every ounce of energy, time, money, and love that you carry in your whole entire body. You feel exhausted because this is insanity. Don't feel confused when you accidentally cry in the shower.

You are doing brilliantly. Just a gorgeous job. Expectations are now so far in the stratosphere, nothing even makes sense. Drop 70% of it and you will STILL create a dreamy Christmas. It doesn't stay this hard. The kids get bigger and so much falls off and the rhythms slow down. Christmas returns to something saner. I promise.

I see you doing it all, young ones. I just love you so much. If I could, I'd invite you over for a lovely glass of wine and pet your hair. We wouldn't even have to talk. You could just take a nap. Until then, Merry Christmas to the women who make all the magic happen. You are doing such a good job.

Except that it’s bullshit and fake. She mentions traditions that didn’t exist when her kids were young (Elf on a Shelf) and small town Main Street activities while living in Austin.

In reality she is a narcissist who actively shows contempt for her children and Remy in particular.

She can be a revisionist historian for the likes but those that have been there from the beginning know what’s up.

Well as a mom in the thick of all that she mentioned, I felt it resonated with me and where I am on this Dec 19, 5 days from Christmas!

It’s so over for Jen Hatmaker.

For those in the back, it’s not 2016 anymore!

Girl, get a real career and life.

A new year, a new fresh and empty page.

You don’t have to do this anymore.

More recycled content…

yes, weird

Tyler will never give Jen a ring or even live in the same town as Jen. It will not happen.

I imagine Tyler will pull à Tom to Darcey and give Jen a ring box with a key to his house.

What’s in store for Jen in 2024? Anyone want to take some guesses?

A ring from Tyler?!
A new scorched Earth book detailing her divorce and magical recovery?
A new HGTV show?
A hugely successful speaking tour??

Or 10,636 posts begging her tribe to buy crap from her or take her MeCourses?
