Sarah hasn’t quite recovered from her family trip last week, but she is optimistic she may be more with it next week. In the midst of Sarah’s frazzlement and her children’s evening swim lessons she broke down and did something - grocery related - that she’s never done before. And Sarah gives a speech update on her oldest. Grace has been pleasantly surprised and appreciative of her husband taking up the habit of making their bed in the mornings and hopes it continues

This week’s Book Club for 1 novel may be more of a book not to read than a book to read. Then Grace and Sarah get real about some of the things they miss from before motherhood as well as some things that are just hard about being moms. Sarah shares a chicken lasagna that is helping her hit her spinach goals. And Grace brings egg roll in a bowl to the table. No matter how you’re doing motherhood, we’re rooting for you!

Grace came equipped with a few nays this week - one of which being a nay that kind of turned into a yay as her friends rallied around her. To Sarah’s delight, imaginative play has been in full force at her house this week. And her nay might just be the nay of all moms out there - the fact that she does not have a house cleaner.

Grace is feeling a bit of an itch to participate in a week long murder mystery based upon this week’s Book Club for 1 novel. And Grace and Sarah share their experiences with putting their oldest kids in extracurricular activities - from why they even wanted to put their children in activities to begin with to what activities their kids have had exposure to so far. They also share some of the fears they have like how to make sure to expose their kids to things they will love but - at the same time - not over scheduling. Then switch up your dinner rotation with a crowd pleaser dinner from Sarah and a solid comfort meal from Grace. No matter how you’re doing motherhood, we’re rooting for you!
