Hey! I’m Laura Beth.

AT A GLANCE, I’m a standard-issue suburban mother who drives a minivan and waits in the drive-thru for coffee and/or chicken nuggets a couple of times a week.

But like every other mom I’ve ever met, I want you to know that I am more than the sum of my mom-parts.

In other words, please don’t judge my character by the amount of crap that falls out of my car when I open the sliding doors.

 

Here are a few things I’m really good & really bad at that have little to do with motherhood:

(Coincidentally, I am both/either really good and/or really bad at motherhood, depending on the day…)


THINGS I’M BAD AT:

  • Dancing

  • Drinking enough water

  • Solving Sudoku

  • Being on time

  • Ordering at Starbucks

THINGS I’M GOOD AT:

  • Writing Instagram captions

  • Taking naps

  • Playing Ms. Pacman

  • Reading Harry Potter with accents

  • Justifying questionable decisions
