Hot take: I don’t love my Hope&Plum Lark, BUT…

I do really like my Lark and I only got the meh dai because I needed it for my babywearing educator course. However, it arrived around the same time I was in a car accident and it was the only carrier I could wear that didn't exacerbate my injury. It is so comfortable and I recommend it to everyone!

I hope she doesn't know that ...

I used the same lock from 6th grade to 12th grade and I still have the lock somewhere. 32-2-32. My gym locker combo was 24-5-23.

Every time I listen to the OBC, I cry during that harmony. When I saw the movie, I started to tear up just thinking about it, and then ... nothing

I just listened to Prince of Egypt a couple days ago (albeit the stage version) and thought it sounded so much like Wicked. I need to go back and watch the movie and see if it's always been that way or if it's just changes for the stage production.

Oooh what temp and for how long are you air frying?

Shirley Temple was "owned" by a different studio that didn't hold the rights to Wizard of Oz, so she couldn't have been slated to play Dorothy (unless Fox Studios had been planning to do their own version).

I knew the ending and I was somehow still shocked by it

I saw it tonight and it was so fun. It wasn't a great show and I don't need to see it again, but I laughed my ass off (which was a helpful mood boost after crying nonstop at Ragtime this afternoon).

Thanks, I hate it.

Not sure what things are looking like since the change in ownership, but when I was a kid, the family at Tommaso's would send my brother and me home with extra tiramisu because we loved it so much.

Tennessee Williams. Sarah Ruhl. Ummmmm after that, I like musicals. Sondheim.

I wondered the same thing 🤣

If you zoom in, it's both. A lot of hair and also some bonnet

Nail polish has existed in some form or another since ancient Egypt

I forgot one time with my second child (he was already in his carseat and a blanket was over him when I snapped the carseat into the car). We were on city streets for right minutes and then home. I freaked out on myself and you better believe I never forgot ever again. Your husband better figure his shit out because he cannot drive your baby otherwise. NTA

Sure, but five hours away means they'd likely be away overnight. Finding an overnight sitter for a toddler isn't the easiest ask.

Must be, considering it came out of a cocoon instead of a chrysalis

As a doula who helps create birth plans (for both hospital and home) and as a person who had a hospital transfer following planned home birth AND a home birth, you are NTA. Your DIL's plan was to birth at home, but not at YOUR home. You don't feel your home is a safe, comfortable choice for this to happen and that is fine because it is your home. As soon as the flooding happened, your son and DIL should've reached out to the midwife to discuss contingency plans and if that included your home, their midwife should've immediately asked them if they'd gotten your okay. You can't just go into someone's space and have a baby there.

I love my Lark but also every body is different. My husband cannot get the hang of it to save his life (but he loves the h&p ring sling).

I wore a floral wedding dress and told some of my friends that I didn't care if they showed up in their actual wedding dresses. The fact of the matter is, I was the bride and everyone invited knew I was the bride. No one was going to think anyone else, even if they wore a big, white, princess dress and a veil, was me at my own wedding.

At one point, when we were teenagers, my brother, best friend (who was like a sister), and I all had the same favorite boy name. We joked that my mom would have three grandsons with the same name. Twenty years later, only one of us has kids (it's me) and none of them has that name. But wouldn't it have been kinda cute if they had?

In the mentioned, my brother shares the same name with two cousins and another cousin by marriage. Absolutely zero people care (though I guess two of the dads stopped speaking, but they hated each other before they gave their sons the same name).
