Parents, Consider Underachieving⁠↗

I am just so tired, and so bad at crafts. I dream of the day we can all take it down a notch without shame: skipping an event here, ignoring a made-up holiday there. What I need is a quorum. Without it, my kids will continue to feel neglected — all their friends went to the world fair, and they said the food at Venezuela was incredible — and I will continue to feel guilty, pretty much all the time, but especially when I’m staring at my ceiling at 3 a.m.
