Show Notes

We recently had a pool party with a group of Emma's homeschool co-op friends, and I've been told again that I'm a cool mom. I'm not a cool person. I'm kind of nerdy, actually.

So how do I get this label? It's not merely that I do these things (although they help):

  • make a monster pan of homemade mac-n-cheese and two giant chocolate chip cookies for a pool party
  • let the kids make a crazy fort in the sunroom with every available blanket, bean bag, and pillow
  • take Emma and a friend to an Ed Sheeran concert and crowd in with the rest of the fans

Being a cool mom is a much deeper issue than the money you spend, the time you sacrifice, and the quantities of chocolate and cheese that you buy. It's a matter of the heart.
