As a kid growing up in the 80s, I often dreamed of becoming a punk rocker with pink hair and star-shaped earrings, living a life full of glamour. While I may not be touring with a famous band, I’ve come to realize that motherhood has given me a rockstar experience of my own.

  1. My name is a constant chant. “Mom! Mama! Mommy!” If I close my eyes, I can almost picture myself performing in front of a roaring crowd.
  2. I’ve got my own stage name. While my birth certificate doesn’t read “Mom,” it feels like my identity is forever tied to it.
  3. People throw things at me. Not quite what I envisioned, but yes, I’ve had more than a few toys hurled my way.
  4. I’ve mastered my instrument. With just four keys, I can create a symphony fit for a toddler. Want to hear my rendition of “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” on the mini piano? Prepare for goosebumps.
  5. I live the ultimate party life. Late nights filled with messes, spills, and lots of laughter—it’s a wild ride.
  6. I have access to the best beauty treatments in town. No need for appointments; I just sit down and leave feeling fabulous.
  7. I rub shoulders with the coolest kids around. That’s me dressed up alongside my best friends, Captain Adventure and Princess Sparkle—definitely the stars of my world.
  8. Everyone wants my autographs. Daycare centers in my area have been lining up for my signature, and I’m more than happy to oblige. Hold onto those, they could be worth something someday!
  9. My fans are relentless. I often get requests for repeat performances, especially when “Goodnight Moon” doesn’t quite hit the mark the first time.
  10. Who cares if I can’t sing? My audience doesn’t mind a bit—they cheer me on and always ask for an encore, even without autotune.
