Dear Hubby, I Know I Complain A Lot But I Still Love You
[[link removed]]
Father’s Day is nearly upon us, and today, Samm Burnham Davidson is thanking her
husband for everything he does. Well, with some caveats: “Sometimes I can be a
little bitter. The endless months of nausea endured through pregnancies, the
stretch marks, and the mangled vagina. The endless nights of nursing and
infinite mental checklists of child and household responsibilities. Sometimes I
think you get off easy.”
But then she takes a step back: “When I actually watch you — I notice that you
are exhaustedly giving your entire self to our family, too.” It’s a lovely
recognition, and also a nice starting point if you’re struggling for what to
write in this year’s Father’s Day card.

Our Family Is More Scrambled Than Blended
[[link removed]]
You see it a lot on the feel-good corners of the internet – happily-ever-after
stories about blended family triumphs, where dads and stepdads unite to walk
daughters down the aisle. Jen Sinclair acknowledges they’re sweet – but that’ll
never be her family, she freely admits in a frank piece today: “We don't look
anything like that, and we never will. Some of us just don't blend very well.”
But they make it work, anyway, and today she’s sharing her secret for how.
