Thats the hardest thing about being a mom. You want to be cool, and you want them to like you all the time, but you cant always have that. Youre gonna have times where you have to say no, and you wont be the most popular person in the house. – Martina McBride
Theres always someone asking you to underline one piece of yourself – whether its Black, woman, mother, dyke, teacher, etc. – because thats the piece that they need to key in to. They want to dismiss everything else. – Audre Lorde
Orphans, dead parents, lonely children at Christmas, morose spoken word recordings, everything you love about the holidays. Move the turkey over so you can fit your head in the oven. – April Winchell
