#IMOMSOHARD

We are from Nebraska and raising our kids in California. They don’t know the cold, or walking home from school but they do know sushi. Sigh. We are doing our best to keep the Midwest roots strong. Hosted on Acast. See https://acast.com/privacy for more information.

Get ready parents. Your kid never asks hard hitting questions, especially about sex, when you are prepared.
