I Put My Husband First, and I’m A Better Mom Because of It

It’s so darn easy to put my kids first. But in order to be a better mom, I know I needed to change that.

As a mom, it feels like my life revolves around these little people and their big needs. And it probably feels that way because, realistically, it does. They are, without a doubt, the main focus of my attention.

Because they demand it, really. They need me — my time, my energy, my help, my guidance, my presence, my mad making-three-different-meals-they-refuse-to-eat skills — far more than anyone else has ever needed me.
