I have noticed lately, when I see relatives I haven't seen in a while, they say "Hi! How are the kids?" instead of "How are you?" It's disconcerting and makes me feel like a non-person. While my kids creep up in conversations, I don't want to talk about them exclusively.
While my kids creep up in conversations, I don't want to talk about them exclusively.
That's what most people I know who have kids DON'T want. But there are some folks whose every third word in life is about their kids. I personally think that's lame.
Furthermore, DON'T be that girl:
*Who is married with kids, and for some reason feels like it's time to stop caring what you look like and start wearing "Mom" jeans, rocking a "Mom" haircut, and driving a minivan. Why?!
*Who is now married with kids and when out with her single friends says things like:
"I don't know how you girls can spend SO much money on your clothes (which aren't even remotely expensive), Bob would kill me if I spend $30 on ONE shirt!"
"I could never spend more than $8 to get my hair cut, we have PRIORITIES now."

Will someone post a picture of a mom haircut? Cause I hear people talking about them all the time, but I don't really know what one looks like. I need to make sure I don't accidentally get one.

Short and "easy to manage." It's the look of giving up on trying to look good because you only have time for the kids.
