But in fact, we're both working moms of young kids who are trying to do right by our families - all while not losing our sanity. Recently we had a little hallway conversation and I thought you may want to eavesdrop... enjoy!

There are some fundamental differences in approach between my husband and myself, but I’ve recognized that these quirks are ultimately what make my husband a wonderful father.
