Really, is it too much to ask that I be able to come home from a long day of work and relax? Oh, no. I have to come home and read a bunch of letters written to the love of my life by his fiancée, who,...
Parenthood is the most difficult, demanding job in the entire world,
No one has ever died of embarrassment-never, not once in the whole history of time.
