Here are my children. When I was younger in school I thought that I was uncool. I hung out with friends and participated in school activities that I thought were "uncool". Then I graduated and went to college. I was in several activities and I was a pretty good student. Then I got married and we had friends over and hosted parties. The entire time I considered myself less than popular. But having kids changes everything. Going out to parties, conversation, purchasing clothing all become child-centric. No longer do you drop everything to go out with your friends for dinner. Now you have kids, it definitely ups the ante on your uncoolness.
Now I spend my time watching cartoons and eating peanut butter and jelly. At times you miss wearing clothing you have purchased in the last year and styling your hair. Though I have to say I love being a mom.
Sounds like a plan to me.
