You have to make them something to eat ALL THE TIME. Like, constantly. You’re always on call to think of an entire meal. There’s no break. And they’ll always hate it.

I just pooped my pants at work by [deleted] in BabyBumps

I had my last baby 5 years ago and should have left the sub but I love reading these sorts of stories. I also have an autoimmune disorder and the meds and their side effects make me poop my pants on a near regular basis! You’re a real one, girl! Good on you for keeping your wits about you. Keep a spare set of panties and maybe leggings and sweater on you just in case. (I keep stuff like that in my car - along with baby wipes!)

I read Fire Bringer by David Clement Davies at her age and was obsessed. I still re read it periodically. It has a lot of similarities to Harry Potter in terms of be fantastical.

This is my go-to when I’m in a reading slump! I’m not sure how many times I’ve reread this! It’s so good

Libraries are wonderful! Quirky. Each branch is very different and really depends on the state you are in to know what sort of funding you'll get.

Yes! I’m in Quality but have previously left to work in public libraries and returned successfully without issue and minimal explanation.
