So so sweet. Loved Kate’s commentary and Caroline immediately calling him Tommy. Such a great detail about the tennis match in the background. Surprised you didn’t change his name to Jannick!

Also this line: “…the thought of him riding a pink strider bike. Then I spiraled again, realizing how much I cared about gender stereotypes. We’re better than that!”

Hahaha

The warm gush across your abdomen. Your love for Thomas spreading throughout your body? No. It’s pee. Welcome to being a boy mom. May there be only a moderate amount of fart jokes in your future
