Robin and I played hooky today and went to the mall and out for haircuts. It is the happiest I’ve seen her in ages, and I am so happy that I got to spend that time with her. The evening was rough, though. We are at odds over the time she spends on her phone and it came to a head. She came out of her wrecked room in tears and we (I) talked and I think we both came out a little better for it. Momming is so much harder than I imagined. And then there’s Christina, who can see everything and knew to hug me just a little tighter at bedtime. I love her so much too. As hard as it is, I would not give either of them up for anything.
