The Stay-at-Home Mom Has Given Up

I was picking up Carter from Windsor Elementary when I ran into Lily Whitman’s mom. Just as I was about to greet her, Carter jumped out in front of me, blocking my way.

“This is our nanny. You don’t need to talk to her!”

Then he turned to me and shouted, “You’re embarrassing! Don’t come to school looking like that!”

I was furious when I got home and immediately complained to Nathan, but instead of support, he snapped at me.

“Well, if both of you think I’m such an embarrassment, I’ll just spend all my time and money on beauty treatments and new clothes. Let’s see how that goes.”
